Today the Eco committee launched a whole school gardening competition.

Each class is getting a gardening area and there will be two prizes

1. nicest garden area
2. most food grown before the end of the year.

Classes will be responsible for their own garden area, including planting, watering, weeding and harvesting.

Each week, the Eco committee will check all of the gardening areas and keep a record of the nicest gardening area.

Keep checking back for updates on progress!

there has been a lot of litter blowing into the school from the surrounding area so on Friday, primary 7 went out to tackle it!

As usual we had a weirdest item of litter competition and the three weirdest litter items this week were

1. the rusty head of a giant spade
2. a thermometer
3. a squeaky dog toy football

thanks to all primary 7s for putting the effort into cleaning up our environment – Article 24

over the past week some primary 7 children have been learning how to be beekeepers and performing beekeeping inspections.

Today at at assembly they shared what they have learned about beekeeping with the rest of the school and demonstrated the safety gear with a willing volunteer.

The children were extremely brave and gentle with the bees  well done.
