In Launching into Learning, we have been planting bean seeds and caring for them each week. 🌱

Children have been closely observing the changes as their beans have sprouted and grown, learning about the importance of watering and looking after living things. 🌿

This week, our plants had grown so well that it was time to transfer the seedlings into pots, where we will continue to nurture and care for them as they grow. 🪴
