Big Battery Hunt

The Eco leaders have given out boxes to children in their class so that they can collect batteries for recycling.  If your child did not bring a box home the used batteries can be brought into school in a plastic bag. The bags and boxes can be handed to the eco leaders in your child's class and they will bring them to me.  We are only collecting these used batteries: AAA  AA  C  D  The batteries that we collect will be recycled to make new batteries, used in the construction industry and they can even be made into fertilizer!  Please don't throw your old batteries away.  Ov

Safer Internet and Mental Health Week

Safer Internet Day 2023 will take place on the 7th of February 2023, with celebrations and learning based around the theme ‘Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online’. We are also linking this with Mental Health Week - as they go hand in hand. I am asking our pupils to design a poster about life online, which links the themes.

RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch 2023

The RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch is this weekend  27th-29th January.  By taking part in Big Garden Birdwatch you, and hundreds of thousands of other like-minded nature lovers, will be taking action to protect our birds for generations to come. The Big Garden Birdwatch is fun, free and for everyone. And you don’t need a garden to take part! Counting birds from your balcony, or your local park will play a vital role in helping us understand how UK birds are doing.


Science

Today in Science, the children got into small groups and were given pictures of different types of food. The children were asked to sort them into different ways. Most of the groups put the foods into ‘healthy’ and ‘unhealthy’ groups but one group put theirs into ‘healthy’, take away’, ‘sweets and chocolate’ and ‘proteins.’ Another group put theirs into ‘healthy’, ‘unhealthy’ and ‘unsure.’ We discussed the unsure groups and decided if they were healthy or unhealthy.
