we got back we ate fish and chips. We had fun.

On Monday we walked to Panmure Wharf and
we went fishing. We got to the Panmure Wharf.

we ate fish and chips.

Seeds and Our Sunflower Growing Competition By Veisinia

2009-01-09T15:17:00.001+13:00

What do seeds need to
grow well?

Seeds needs watering and sunlight to grow well and healthy. They need warmth and soil to grow bigger. The next day you do the same thing. Except putting the soil in because - there is already some in the pot.

Did you know that Tamaki Primary School is having a competition growing a sunflower plant. They are going to tell who is the winner of the growing sunflower.
They are telling us when it is the end of school.
