P4KL had a brilliant afternoon launching our new World Around Us topic, ‘The Natural World,’ by investigating our school forest area! The children worked wonderfully in groups, becoming nature detectives as they used all their senses to recognise and understand the incredible diversity of our natural environment. The highlight of the lesson was a real sensory surprise—using their sense of smell, the children tracked down wild garlic growing right here on our school grounds! It was a fantastic way to see their curiosity in action as they connected the familiar scent to the plants in front of them. It was a wonderful start to our new topic!
