Global Goals Week @ Beatlie

Leave a comment

 

Last week we held our Global Goals Week highlighting the 3 Goals we will be working toward over the year.

This year we will be highlighting the following Global Goals:

GG3: Good Health & Wellbeing

Some of us made smoothies and/ or fruit salads, we all participated in physical activities and daily story massage.

GG12: Responsible Consumption

Beatlie display great responsibility with their consumption and we daily participate in recycling daily recyclables and through our art and craft activities we enjoy upcycling something from school to make something new. Some of us had fun taking part in these activities over the week.

GG15: Life on Land

We enjoyed fun participating in a Biodiversity Hunt in the garden finding bug hotels, hedgehog house etc. We also got messy making Bird Feeders and doing some gardening as well as making the most of the weather and observing nature all around us while going on community walks.

Today 4 of our athletes represented Beatlie at the ASN Fun Run at Cedarbank School.

The boys took part in the 0.5km walk/run  🏃‍♂️‍➡️ and placed 4th, 9th and 12th out of 20 competitors.

In the 1km wheelchair race our female athlete came 1st!! 🥳

We are super proud of them as this was a really busy event with lots of new faces and an unfamiliar route.

Walking Month Week 4

Leave a comment

A little bit of rain hasn’t stopped us from getting out there on our walks this week!  For our final week of walking week, each class went on a walk and collected some natural materials in the environment, experiencing all of the sights, smells and feelings of all of our findings.  When we got back to school we put our materials to good use and made a lovely display board at the front of the school with our wonderful creations!  What do you think?  We think it looks great!

Well done everyone on another successful walking month of May!

Walking Month Week 2

Leave a comment

Another busy week for all the children in Beatlie getting out and about this walking month.  This week we went on a sound walk – we found all the pictures of the rainforest animals and used our talking buttons to play the sound that they make.  This was lots of fun and some of the animals sounds made us laugh! Lots of nice sunny weather for us this week too – hopefully it keeps up for us into next week!

Happy International Walking Month!!  The theme for this years walking month is the rainforest and how reducing our carbon footprint will help the rainforest and the animals that live there.  This week each class has gone on a local walk and have been on the hunt for some rainforest animals on their way.

This week Beatlie got to experience and participate in Spring Clean Week. A chance to tidy up the garden areas and local community before we break for the holidays!

 

The weather was perfect for us all to get out and about in the gardens and local community for all to litter pick.

This all helps our environment too!

  • How our own bodies change and adapt
  • How animals survive and adapt in the wild
