PYP Earth Day – Ljubljana Botanical Gardens

On Monday, 22 April, the PYP pupils celebrated Earth Day by visiting the Botanical Gardens in Ljubljana. We were warmly welcomed by a host of green-fingered guides, who took each class around the various environments showcased by the gardens, including the tropical greenhouse and typical outdoor Slovenian fauna. The pupils also had gardening workshops, including planting their own seedlings and making a carnivorous pitcher plant from paper, of which they were allowed to take home. The day concluded in the classroom with a discussion on the importance of the conservation of nature and natural resources, followed by a reflection on the day. Let’s make Earth Day everyday.
