We are starting a new lockdown project this Monday! Each day, we will produce a different sheet detailing a plant, its Latin name, some facts about its use by the Greeks and Romans, the myth explaining how it came into being, and some activities for children!

You can download the sheets from the Iris Project website here, as well as viewing them below (click on the name to take you to the downloadable pdf).
