Fantastic Fungi -

What an incredible week it’s been for Phase 1 delving into the fascinating world of fungi!

We have:
🍄  Explored the different parts of a mushroom
🍄 Reenacted a mycelial network
🍄 Discovered how fungi are part of so many of our everyday foods
🍄 Ventured outside as young mycologists in search of wild fungi
🍄 Created beautiful spore prints
🍄 Learned about the amazing varieties of fungi around us

 

The children have been absolutely amazing — their curiosity, enthusiasm, and ability to soak up new knowledge has blown us away. Their excitement is a beautiful reminder that wonder is everywhere; sometimes, we just need to slow down and take a moment to look. 🌿✨
