Today we met ‘Windy’ the mascot of East Ayrshire Clean Green Award. The pupils from the Eco Committee shared what they have been doing across the school and community. P1-3 shared what they have been doing as part of the EAC ‘Power Down’ challenge as part of their commitment to the EAC Clean Green Award and Eco Flag.
We welcomed Mr Torbett to the class today where he explained the types of activities his company Frazer-Nash Consultancy do that are linked to energy and the environment. The pupils learnt about different types of energy, how it is produced and the impact it has on the environment. Pupils discussed the positive and negative points of each energy source and shared their own knowledge. It was a great learning opportunity for everyone and we very much appreciate Mr Torbett’
Today we planted lots of daffodils so that hopefully we can enjoy them all when Spring comes! We are continuing to work on improving our garden space to be an attractive, relaxing space.
As part of our commitment to the EAC Clean Green Award and gaining our next Eco flag we began working on the Natural Environment. This is part of our action plan. With donations from Tesco and Scarlett Rose Nurseries we were able to put new plants and bulbs in the garden. Sandy and Mrs Borland from ECC helped us to get top soil too to top up the planters.
