Fairies in our Garden!!


How excited we were the other day to discover that fairies have moved into our garden.....
The appearance of tiny little fairy doors has enchanted our students who enjoy playing and decorating the tiny gardens of our resident fairies. Teeny, tiny fairy letters have been written to our students, who have responded with letters and drawings telling the fairies to stay. This has been a great opportunity for us to discuss what habitats are and the part we can play to keep them healthy.
A new little fairy size letterbox has been installed allowing a magical exchange between the fairies and our students.
Students have created some gorgeous art works about their ideas of what fairy folk look like. (images to follow).
 Searching for clues......
 Magnifying glasses were needed for tiny clues....

 ...and then we found a teeny tiny leather satchell.....
 ...but what was inside??
 A little letter to our students asking if they can stay in our garden!

"Of course!" said the kids.
