Biomass a Renewable energy source.

Biomass is a Renewable energy source it is also short for biological material. Biomass creates heat and energy. The energy it contains is from the sun. Biomass is created by burning things like some crops, types of rubbish, manure, scrap and lumber forest in a boiler. The  most common types of Biomass boilers are hot water boilers and steam boilers. Co-firing biomass with coal is a very effective way of using biomass for energy. Biomass is the only renewable energy source that can be converted into liquid.

Our Pantomime

Our pantomime this year is called Ali Baba And The Bongo Bandits. On Thursday 14th and Friday 15th December we will be presenting our pantomime. We have been practicing for a very long time to be able to get it perfect for Thursday and Friday night.  This year our pantomime is about a boy called Ali Baba who gets blamed for a royal robbery but his mum,the princess and the genie of the ketchup save him and get away on a magic carpet. I think that our pantomime is going to be really good so you should come.
