The Litter Police have just got their new grabbers and gloves and are patrolling the grounds looking for litter. Ideally they should find none….so remember to use the bins properly!
Transient Art
At their Joint Sessions, the Pre-5 unit and P1/2 have been learning about the 3rs – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. They enjoyed making fabulous pictures using their unusual art materials – straws, pompoms, beads, lolly sticks….but no glue! This means that the material is not wasted but reused each time. Children took pictures of their art instead.
Eco superheroes
The Pre-5 unit and P1/2 made their own Eco Superheroes that are going to save the world. They discovered that they can be eco-heroes too and decided what they could do to help the planet. Check out their ideas on the noticeboard….and add your own. Look out for the Green Eco Hero in nursery!
Looking at plastics for recycling
Have you ever noticed the little triangles on the bottom of plastics for recycling? The Pre-5 children and P1/2 have been investigating a recycling bag to see which numbers were in the greatest number. Here are their results.
