P4 planted carrot seeds today. We learned about the Dig for Victory campaign in their WW2 topic and the importance of growing vegetables to help the war effort. As part of our Eco topic on Healthy Living we also have looked at the nutritious value of carrots for us today and how they are good for our bodies. Each child brought in an old toliet paper tube to reuse as a compostable plant pot. This way the carrots can be planted in the pots straight into the ground. Then they added compost, a seed and some water. We can’t wait to see our carrots grow!
