"Science is a way of investigating, understanding and explaining our natural world, physical world and wider universe" (NZ Curriculum).

Students need to lean what science is and how scientists work as well as scientific knowledge.

Science programmes at Eastern Hutt aim to provide hands on investigations that will develop students' curiosity of the world around us and an interest in science.

Planting our beans

Today in science club Miss Harrison brought in some old plant pots for us to use to plant our beans.

First we got a pot and put some soil in it. Then we had to dig a hole and carefully put our bean into it. The roots had to be facing down and the shoot facing up.

Then we covered it with soil but left the shoot poking out.

Next we watered our plants so they would grow.

Finally we put our bean plants in a sunny spot in the classroom.

Hopefully they will grow.
