Logan Schools' Week
Logan Schools' Week May 2026
Logan Schools' Week will run from the 11th - 15th May 2026.
Programme for 2026
Our Senses in the Garden (P1-3)
Join us on a wonderful outdoor exploration as we use our senses in surprising and unexpected ways! This sensory journey will encourage your learners to slow down and take a moment to focus on plants using their five senses. By using special tools and creative and imaginative techniques, your class will dive deep into the special relationship between pants and senses.
Life of Plants (P4-7)
Explore the lifecycle of plants from a new perspective. Take part in a drama where you will find out what it is like to be a pollinator and a flower. Learn how to use some real botanists’ tools to zoom in on the beautiful flowers in our garden and discover some of the surprising ways that plants scatter their seeds.
