Goustan the Growing Man – Y1 Workshop

This week to start their learning for their ‘Down on the Farm’ theme, Year 1 invited Goustan the Growing Man to help them learn about how to grow food to eat. He helped us learn all about what plants need to grow, why plants are so important for us all and how we can all make our community a little bit greener and healthier. Children had to break up the soil, mix it with coconut husk, then plant it in newspaper and gently add the seeds. After that, they had to cover the seeds and water them. The children now need to water their seeds every day! We are hoping to use the plants to make our own salad!
