We consider a certain class of Schubert varieties of the affine Grassmannian of type A. By embedding a Schubert variety into a finite-dimensional Grassmannian, we construct an explicit basis of sections of the basic line bundle by restricting certain Pl\"ucker co-ordinates. As a consequence, we write an explicit set of generators for the degree-one part of the ideal of the finite-dimensional embedding. This in turn gives a set of generators for the degree-one part of the ideal defining the affine Grassmannian inside the infinite Grassmannian which we conjecture to be a complete set of ideal generators. We apply our results to the orbit closures of nilpotent matrices. We describe (in a characteristic-free way) a filtration for the coordinate ring of a nilpotent orbit closure and state a conjecture on the SL(n)-module structures of the constituents of this filtration.
