Earth Day – 2013

39 Comments

Today is Earth Day – a day in which people around the world not only celebrate the living things on our planet, but also campaign to protect our world from Global Warming. The videos below deliver the message that we need to act NOW, before it’s too late. Hopefully with our biodiversity and sustainability work this term, we will have a positive impact on the world.

Going Global!

6 Comments

We have been immersed in Climate Change and Global Warming over the passed few weeks.

Our Climate Change board games are now complete. We will be showcasing our games at the Open Afternoon on the 5th of December, where we invite parents/carers into see how much hard work we put in with our teams.

There is ONE game missing… If it’s your game, comment on the post with where you think it has disappeared to.

We were extremely busy today beginning with our Rock Challenge planning. Our choreographers have begun creating the routines, the design team have been planning out scenery and outfits, and the technical team have begun thinking about lights, sound and video.

Our soundtrack sounds FANTASTIC! Looking forward to another session tomorrow!

Climate Change and Global Warming

Today in Reading for Information we developed our note-taking skills by watching a clip from the National Geographic on Climate Change and Global Warming.

We found out that if we don’t change our behaviour, attitude and actions towards the world soon, the world will continue to deteriorate at a rapid rate.

YOUR HOMEWORK TASK: FOR TOMORROW 5th SEPTEMBER 2012

  • Choose 5 things that you can do at home to lower your carbon footprint and prevent global warming.
