YEAR 1 TAKE ACTION BY LITTER PICKING & RECYCLING
Year 1 children took part in a recycling workshop. The children learnt more about the 3 R's and how to protect our planet. The children loved litter picking and making our school environment a better place.
YEAR 5 TAKE ACTION FOR WATER CONSERVATION
This year, Year 5 have looked at natural resources and the impact that these have on the survival of living things including plants and animals. They have considered what would happen if water ran out and the impact of this locally and around the world. As part of our action to encourage people to stop wasting water and to keep water clean, the children have created some posters to help share this message with our wider school community. This message has also been shared in the school with the poster distributed in and around the school building.

Thank you to everyone who donated to this brilliant cause!
