Nursery Trip to Spitalfields City Farm

Despite the rain and the cold our Nursery children and their parents had a fantastic visit to Spitalfields City Farm on Thursday! The children were so excited to see the animals up close, from fluffy sheep to clucking chickens. They also explored the beautiful gardens, spotting different plants and flowers.

This trip linked perfectly with our learning at school. We have been exploring the signs of spring and discovering how things grow. The children have been busy planting beans and seeds in class and watching them sprout, just like the plants at the farm. We also had an amazing experience watching chicks hatch from eggs in the  incubator, learning all about life cycles.

Seeing real-life examples of what we’ve been learning made the trip even more special. Thank you to all the parents who joined us—we had a wonderful day of discovery, nature, and fun!

“We also hope that this experience inspires the parents and children to keep exploring nature and growing their own plants at home!”
