We went on a minibeast hunt and looked closely at what we found through the magnifying lenses on our bug tubs and pots. we found wood louse, different types of flies, millipedes, centipedes, spiders, slugs and snails.
As part of a homework challenge P4/5 were asked to create a presentation by Vicky McWilliam from the EAC Clean Green Award that could be presented to 32 local authorities at the ASSIST conference in Glasgow. The pupils created some outstanding presentations summarising all that we do in Fenwick Primary to reduce food waste.
Jessica, Ilaria and Lily came along to the conference and confidently delivered their presentation. Fantastic job!!
Well done to Henry and Harriet who won ‘Dinnae Forget your Caddy’ with the name ‘Ariana Binday.’ Vicky from EAC Clean Green Award and Lorna the Community Waste Officer came in to present the gift voucher to Harriet, Henry and their mum. Well done!
P4/5 have nearly completed the Eco friendly greenhouse with George the STEM ambassador who has been working with us. The pupils have used their leadership and technological skills. We also planted carrots, tomatoes, broccoli, sweetcorn, cucumber and flowers. Our wildflowers are blooming, attracting lots of bees and we went on a snail search.
George came in to help us measure and saw wood for the frame for our Eco friendly greenhouse that we are building.
