Today we celebrated World Earth Day and P5-7 kickstarted it with a Live session on Tech for Sustainable Transport. The children joined many other schools in discussing various forms of transport, how they affect the environment and the fuels used to power different vehicles. The session included many fun activities and encouraged the children to think of ways that transport could be made more sustainable and also be helpful to others. At the end we were able to design our own sustainable method of transport – and what amazing creativity the children had! P5-7 used many Metaskills throughout these tasks today: Focusing, Initiative, Communicating, Collaborating, Curiosity, Sense-making, Creativity and Critical Thinking! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later in the day, Mrs Westbrook came in to help us clean and tidy up our school grounds. We got stuck in weeding, sweeping and tidying up our playground. We love our planet and we love our school. \ud83c\udf0d\ud83c\udfeb<\/p>\n\n\n\n
