Guess what? We opened our own Garden Centre!

We have been so busy this half term learning about plants and mini-beasts. We needed to be  prepared to answer any questions our customers may ask us at our ‘Garden Centre’.

We went for walks to the local park to take photos of flowers, which we then used to make book marks.

We went into our woodland to identify mini-beasts, and also create natural art pictures for our art gallery.

We went stick hunting for perfect sticks to make our mini-beast hotels, and to create our fairy wands.

Whilst we were outside it rained, but no weather is bad weather, so we got the umbrellas out!

We baked buns, biscuits and created grape caterpillars for our café.

We made our staff badges, and began advertising for our ‘Garden Centre’ opening.

Well, the day had finally arrived, all of our hard work had certainly paid off. We had fully stocked our ‘Garden Centre’ and we were just waiting for customers to arrive.

It was time to cut the ribbon. Can you guess who we asked to do this very important job?

Our customers turned up in droves!

Some people had great fun on the flower photo booth.

We had some beautiful cakes donated for the raffle, by some fabulous parents and helpers. We asked Mr Wirth to draw the raffle.

What a fabulous turn out for our event! We were overwhelmed with the amount of support we received, and the weather was definitely on our side. Thank you to everyone that attended!

We manage to raise £182, which we are planning to spend on our next topic ‘It’s a Pirates Life for Me’
