P1/2 Litter Survey

P1/2 went round and picked up all the litter from the playground and they made a survey about what they found.

  • 2 Cans
  • 1 Cole Bag
  • 2 Co-op Bags
  • 31 sweets and crisp packets
  • 15 Bottles
  • 1 Lighter

Now the playground is nice and clean.  We should all start picking up litter like P1/2.  They used some of the litter to make bird feeders

P1/2 Bird Feeders

Primary 1/2 from Port Ellen Primary school made bird food and feeders for the birds as a Christmas present. To make the bird food that they used Lard, seeds, dried pineapple, raisins, mix, the then used pine cone hanging with string to put the bird food mix on it. They then made bird feeders for their food using bottles that were found on their litter pick one day. They made them by putting a hole in the top where they threaded through some string to hang it up. They then decorated it by wrapping a piece of paper around the bottle which let them draw christmas picture using felt tip.  It was GREAT FUN! 🙂
