The whole school gathered on Friday afternoon to share with each other what they had been learning about. It was a very interesting afternoon of singing, acting, showing and talking.
Thankfully the planet looks as if it will be in excellent hands in the years to some as our young people talked passionately and knowledgeably about biodiversity, waste minimisation, litter and the impact that each has on our planet.
Here is a small sample of their work from the Eco fortnight...

 |
| Bicycle helmet hanging baskets; lollipop stick bird houses; t-shirt cushions, cardboard desk tidy; coffee tin money box; plastic bottle money box and a bedsheet transformed into a cushion! |
 |
| P6/7J collected rather alarming data about the litter in the streets around our school. |
