We used our 'Sow and Grow' pack to look at how we can grow our own food! We looked at cress, spinach and pea seeds under a magnifying glass before sowing them in small pots. We watered them and put them outside in the warmth. Unfortunately some of them got very wet in the rain but they have all now germinated. We were amazed at how quickly this happened. We look forward to watching them grow. We have noticed that the smallest seed seem to grow the fastest! The cress has already grown and tastes amazing!! ### Seeds and plants in Year 1 [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1510.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1510.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1529.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1529.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1537.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1537.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/IMG_1093.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/IMG_1093.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1505.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1505.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1523.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1523.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1524.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1524.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1526.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1526.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1497.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1497.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1493.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1493.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/DSCN1538.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/DSCN1538.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/IMG_1096.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/IMG_1096.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/7265/IMG_1102.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/7265/IMG_1102.JPG) [ Year 1 Computing Week](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/2016-05-20-15-44-46-year-1-computing-week) [Coding Week! ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/2016-05-20-16-31-55-coding-week) ### Our School - [Headteacher's Welcome](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/headteacher-s-welcome) - [School Vision ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/school-vision) - [Mission Statement](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/school-vision/mission-statement) - [Academy Trust Details](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/academy-trust-details) - [Financial Information](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/financial-information) - [History](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/history) - [Our School Day](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/our-school-day) - [Staff list](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/meet-the-staff) - [Job Vacancies](https://recruit.sampeople.co.uk/Jobboard/Trust/aspirationalfutures/00002) - Governors - [Local Governing Board](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/governors) - [Special Educational Needs](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/sen) - [Ofsted](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/performance-reports) - [Performance](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/performance-reports/performance) - [Policies](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/policies) - [British Values Statement](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/british-values-statement) - [General data Protection Regulation (GDPR)](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/data-protection-notice) - [Mental Health & Wellbeing](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/mental-health-wellbeing) - [Equalities](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/equalities) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Gillibrand-Primary-School/61564646614865/?locale=en_GB) - [Staff Email](https://mail.google.com/) - [Staff Use Only](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/staff-use-only) - [OPAL Lunchtimes](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/opal-lunchtimes) - [Sustainability](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/sustainability) ![Gillibrand Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/logo/gillibrand_logo_2.png) #### Gillibrand Primary School Grosvenor Road Chorley PR7 2PJ 01257 274983 #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Gillibrand-Primary-School/61564646614865/?locale=en_GB) © Copyright 2015–2026 Gillibrand Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
