Y1 Science: Exploring Spring!

Back to News

24th Apr 2023

Spring has well and truly 'sprung' and today the children have been on a hunt around the school grounds, looking for signs of Spring.

The children spotted: catkins, blossom, birds, various birds' nests, buds, some flowers and green leaves.

They also learned that Spring is a time of new life for both plants and animals, that the days get longer (and nights shorter) and some of the changes in the weather.

Children have been asked to look for signs of spring on their way to and from school.
