Happy Green Halloween!

Room 14 have been working their socks off over the last few weeks in the run up to Hallowe'en constructing monsters in art class. The only rule was that the monsters had to be made completely from recycled materials. Didn't they do a terrifyingly terrific job?!

Ps Well done to everyone who made their own costumes this year! :-)

Room 14 celebrate National Tree Day

10/10/2015

Room 14 decided to thank all those wonderful trees around the world by taking part in a tour of the Botanic Gardens to celebrate National Tree Day.
It was a beautiful Autumn day and we were glad to be out in the sunshine looking at all the pretty colours. We learned so much!
  • Did you know that there is a tree in the Botanic Gardens that smells like sugar (or even candy floss)?
  • We also felt the trunk of a tree that was made of cork!
  • We were given special permission to enter the Viking house and learned how it was made entirely of plants and trees.
  • We saw the oldest tree in the gardens- a yew tree and the tallest tree- a 'baby' Sequoia- it was 180 years old- some Sequoia trees live to be 3000 years old!
  • We learned about the 'rag tree.' It is a hawthorn tree that people attach mementos to for good luck or to pray for someone. 
  • We visited the vegetable patch and its scarecrow to hear all about the yummy organic vegetables.
  • We found some lily pads in the pond.
  • We enjoyed all the beautiful scents of the rose garden.
  • We finished our tour in the palm houses looking at all the tropical plants!
It was great fun- thanks so much to our wonderful tour guide and to Yvonne for joining us.
