Our ECO Song!
Today, we perfected our Eco Song. We plan to teach it to the rest of the school at Friday’s Leadership assembly. Do you recognise the tune?
🎵”We could change this whole school well don’t you know
Walk to school, clear the litter, switch the lights off and away we go
I’m just a kid and I’d like you to know
Grow some plants, care for creatures, raise awareness cos’ we know
Glenmanor is talking ’bout my Health and Wellbeing and caring for the school, conserving energy
And I’m right over here singing all that I know
Sing, we could change this school in a moment
Come on let’s go!
We can change this school in a moment
Come on let’s go!
We can change this school in a moment
Come on let’s go!” 🎵
P5/6 Terrific Tartan
We researched tartan and created our own kilted scotsmen!
P5/6 Science Centre Experiments!
Today we were lucky enough to welcome some visitors from the Science Centre into Glenmanor. They taught us all about how our bodies use energy and helped us carry out an experiment, creating a battery circuit and measuring the energy in a variety of liquids. We also took part in a ‘pain’ experiment where we had to hold our hands in icy water, then try again with music to see if it helped to distract us from the cold! We really enjoyed this science experience.
Eco Committee
During the last few weeks, the newly formed Eco Committee have been working hard during Leadership Academy to begin our journey towards achieving Eco School status. We began by carrying out an ‘Environmental Review’ in order to identify the needs of our school. Some of the older children created our new Eco Logo and incorporated the school badge into it. Stay tuned for some pictures of our committee tomorrow!
P5/6 Perfect Protractors!
We learned how to use a protractor correctly today to measure a variety of angles.
