Why are plants vital to us ? They can provide solutions to some of the problems associated with today’s world,  for example in addressing  climate change and improving wellbeing . This session will raise awareness for teachers and pupils , share resources about the issues and the importance of plants.

Using the different types of enquiry we will look at using plants and their friends ,both inside and outside the classroom , to make children more aware of the issues and how plants might help to solve them . There will also be practical tips as to how to grow  and look after plants and to create a wildlife garden at school .
