Pinewood at War Memorial – Blackburn (Remembrance Day)

Today, a group of our dedicated senior pupils, alongside our headteacher, paid their respects at the Blackburn War Memorial. To commemorate Remembrance Day, they created a wonderful wreath from recycled plastic bottles. This eco-friendly tribute not only honours the fallen but also demonstrates our commitment to sustainability. We are incredibly proud of our pupils for their creativity, compassion, and environmental consciousnes.

 

 

Eco- Committee first meeting

It was a positive start to the session with our inaugural Eco-Committee meeting where we welcomed the new Eco-Rangers. 

To start the meeting, we revisited our outstanding achievement from last year: 

  •  the successful achievement of our fourth Eco-School Green Flag. A huge thank you to Tracey for providing the flagpole. 

Forth Eco-School Green Flag Award

  • We were also delighted to hear from Sarah (science teacher who left last year) about her incredible work in helping the planet. She has been planting thousands of trees in her new eco-friendly home and living a more sustainable life style.

Here is the minutes of our first Eco-Committee meeting.

Group 1 Underwater Activities

Group 1 have had fun completing lots of underwater activities. They were enthusiastic using all the ICT enjoying underwater adventures using the interactive floor projector, osmo activities on the i pads and numeracy games on the smart board, some pupils completing times tables challenges! They also experienced underwater yoga and for literacy read the books Don’t Worry Little Crab and the Rainbow Fish. Making colourful puppets and acting out the story of Don’t Worry Little Crab the young people were good at identifying the character traits of the two crabs and comparing the story to personal experiences. During the Rainbow Fish we explored the character traits of a good friend and completed number mazes to reach the octopus. Finally we enjoyed a trip to Deep Sea World!
