We learnt a lot about sustainability and how to look after our animals.
Animal Man Visit
Eco Assembly
Tom from the Community Centre kindly came into talk to the children about growing their own vegetables. We are hopefully going to start planting our own vegetables at school, working with Tom. The Eco Council then took Tom for a tour around the school, looking at potential spaces to create a planting patch.
Healthy Snacks
Our healthy schools council have been busy handing out stickers to children who have been eating a healthy snack on Monday and Friday playtimes! Well done to our healthy eaters!
Tree planting
Cnoc-y-coed planted trees on the school ground showing a commitment to the sustainability of the planet.
Sorting Litter for Recycling!
Junk Modelling
Captain Green wanted us to ‘use things again’. So, in groups, we created models using junk materials.
Our new Eco School committee
Gwennol's small steps to saving the planet!
Dosbarth Gwennol are helping Captain Green clear up rubbish so they took part in a litter pick on the school grounds!
This year's action plan
Fruit trees! Coed Ffrwythau!
We recently applied for and received 2 apple trees and 2 pear trees, from The Conservation Volunteers. We planted them on Friday!
It was interesting digging the hole; there were so many discussions about how to hold the spade, what to do with your feet, is the hole big enough? Hopefully we’ve done the job correctly!
Whilst we were on the field some children collected litter from hedgerows and gather broken equipment. We also measured the fence lines that hadn’t got hedgerows…that might be our next project!!
