After a year together the children now mixed confidently, greeting each other and chatting.  After leaving bags in the new classroom, which is very plush. The children walked to the nursery area, near the train crossing and got stuck in.  Harvesting herbs to use on pizzas, checking out their giant sunflowers and other plants they had nurtured and seeding their own herbs to take home.

Next, back in the classroom a reflection on the activities they had participated in over the year.  The vocabulary they had acquired and remembered was also impressive as you can see!

Towards the end of the day a walk through the park spotting butterflies ending up at the playpark as a second surprise.

By now the children were running low on energy and the walk back seemed a giant challenge!  Thankfully the last surprise a train ride back. 

At the end of the day the children all received a mini ranger hat, badge and certificate.  Thanks again to all the trust staff and volunteers for delivering a great year of learning.  The aim of the project was to encourage members of the wider community to access the Park, so I hope that these children will bring their families and friends to see this amazing resource, which is in competition to win an award.
