September 20, 2019 by Mrs Blair | Comments Off on International Day of Peace 2019
Today was a great success! Once again, the children were able to deliver an important message, this time about International Day of Peace. Each business group was involved in learning to say ‘May Peace Prevail on Earth’ in a range of languages, sang our unique Alves Primary Rights Respecting song, learnt a Peace Dance, made a climate action banner and an atmosphere blanket with the support of community members. We had perfect weather for the Peace Day ceremony this afternoon. A special thank you to all parents and guests who came along to support us today.

Lexi, Struan and I joined Forres Rotary club at the Ramnee for lunch. The children confidently relayed what we have been doing as Rotakid members and what our plans for the future are. Both kids were outstanding representatives for Alves Primary. Well done guys! We also received the Rotary Presidential Citation award. Looking forward to getting started next year. Please see our UNA blog for our plans. 😁👍
June 20, 2019 by Mrs Blair | Comments Off on P1/2 Campaign against PLASTIC
After discussing and watching a BBC programme, War on Plastic, P1/2 we’re unhappy to learn that baby wipes are 80% plastic. Also, they did not realise how much micro-plastic litter there was on land, sea and in the sky! They were very concerned for the future and felt they needed to let others know about this. The children hadn’t really thought about the sheer quantity of plastic within each household and what happens to it after we are finished with it. Again they were shocked to see that Malaysia was an illegal dumping ground for much of our rubbish. Such a huge concept to grab for such little people but boy did they feel ready to make a change in their own lives after watching this. #inspiredtoreduceplasticuse
