World Conservation & Gardening 18 Sep

Hi Cubs
Have you been diligently watering the seeds you planted?
Have seedlings sprouted out yet?
Isn't fun to watch seeds grow and marvel at the wonders of nature?
You learn about Life Cycles of Plants during your Science lessons, so last Saturday, you put what you learnt into practice :-)

We also learn about the three R's of the environment
- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle - to help protect our Earth.
Recycling is an excellent way of saving energy and conserving the environment.
We should reuse and recycle whatever we can.

Our seeds in recycled bottles and containers - Reuse, Recycle, Reduce

Little shoots growing taller each day !
Grow plants to save the Earth.

When seedlings reach 2 to 3 inches tall and have developed their first set of true leaves, it's time to transplant them into larger containers with more soil , so that they can grow even taller. Who knows, if you take good care of your plants, you may get to harvest some corn, peanuts or lady fingers one day!
