Eco Friendly Pumpkins – Waste management

*Responsible Citizens*  *Effective Contributors*   *Successful Learners*

As part of our Eco targets and Globals Goals this year, we took on the challenge of making Eco friendly pumpkins.  We had great fun carving our pumpkins and creating autumnal artwork with them. We then decided to turn our pumkins into bird feeders.

It is good fun carving pumpkins but we are really  wasting food if they are just left to rot.  By filling them with bird seed we are helping to reduce our food waste footprint whilst also feeding the birds that visit our sensory garden.

The Sungazers have been learning about Diwali, the Festival of Lights, by listening to stories. We got involved in the school challenge to make the most colourful, unique Rangoli pattern. Rangoli patterns are placed to welcome the Hindu Goddess Lakshmi – the goddess of wealth – to your house and are thought to bring good luck! We used a combination of chalk pens and dot painting to complete our Art work

As part of our school Eco targets this year, we learned that people around the world suffer from hunger and we are lucky to have access to food in our school.

FAOL: WHOLE SCHOOL/CITIZENSHIP – MACMILLAN COFFEE MORNING

*Responsible Citizens* & *Effective Contributors*

As part of our class Enterprise, we grew & made our own snacks to enjoy at our MacMillan Coffee Morning. We started off by planting and growing water cress to make Egg Cress sandwiches. We then made our own Soda-bread and butter – which took a lot of shaking! We made the sandwiches fresh this morning with all of our ingredients.

  

Some pupils enjoyed the taste of the lemon we used for Soda bread!

We then enjoyed our sandwiches, some treats and tea/coffee this morning!
