On Friday 8th November 2013, the Primary 7 class from Tulliallan Primary hosted a Sustainability Event to which they invited all classes and also parents and carers.
The event was an opportunity for the children to share their learning about Climate Change and sustainability. Prior to the event, Primary 7 spent lots of time in class learning about the causes and impact of climate change. They also worked with Primary 5 to learn more about Food Miles, the impact these have on the environment and about local, in-season produce. This work was then developed further with P7 carrying out Maths activities to investigate the food miles of various recipes, sharing their learning with Primary 3 and then buddying up with Primary 3 to bake using local produce.
The end result was a Café area that served the food created by P3 and P7 and a trade show in the Primary 7 classroom to highlight the benefits of reusing food packaging waste.
