Before we broke up for the Half Term Holiday, we visited Kew Gardens where we took a multi-sensory journey through a living rainforest and explored the historic Palm House. As soon as we entered the enormous greenhouse, we could feel the humidity which the plants need to grow. We learnt the importance of the rainforest in our everyday life, from how to keep dry if marooned in the rainforest to what to eat, even which medicines it has to offer. There was a lot of walking throughout the day, tree-top walkways, Japanese Landscapes, children’s gardens to name but a few – however, a great day was had by all!
