Wildlife in the garden

Gardening is not just about growing plants.

Watching birds build nests, lay eggs, hatch youngs, feed them, watching babies grow; all add excitement  to the gardening experience of children.

Gardening Club

Learning how to propagate a mature plant.

Children loved playing with soil and getting their hands dirty. The real
motivator was the fact that they could take home a pot that they had planted.

Feeling happy with their prized pots.

Waste Week

We launched our Waste Week Campaign during assembly on April 20th 2015. We talked about the problems of waste asked the whole school to join in with our campaign to minimise waste. We also challenged everyone to make something creative out of waste and bring it to school for a competition.

   

     

Some really creative children

Community Clean Up

Love Where You Live

Part of our Eco Campaign is to promote a litter free environment. We have been trying to organise a monthly community clean up, but have not always been successful with the regularity due to other commitments and the weather. Nevertheless we will keep on trying to organise it monthly.

 

First clean up around G15 area.

Second clean up around H15 flats.

 

Third clean up around H15 flats (opposite end).
