We conducted an experiment to see how plants absorb water. We put some celery into a beaker of blue water. We were really excited to see parts of the celery turn blue as it absorbed the water!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/_d_improd_\/IMG_0366_f_improf_237x237.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"237\" height=\"237\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/_d_improd_\/IMG_0362_f_improf_233x233.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"233\" height=\"233\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We have also been learning all about what plants need to grow.

Thank you to all parents who have said they are able to come and help us.\u00a0Children will need a packed lunch provided either from home or school (as indicated on the trip return slip). They must wear sensible shoes as well as\u00a0take\u00a0a waterproof jacket in case of bad weather. We plan to do lots of exciting activities such as a scavenger hunt, leaf rubbings, drawing, parachute games, visit the farming museum and lots more!
