Environment Day

Well done to all of us for caring for the environment by not turning on any heaters all day!

The weather was particularly bad, but it was the teachers who seemed to find it the most challenging – the kids were fine in their lovely woollen knits! 

Well done and thank you to Chris who spoke at assembly on Monday – you were great! 

Thank you also to Peta and Libby who ran an interactive Magic Compost show on Tuesday with all of the Preps throughout the morning. It was a lot of fun, as you can see from the photos. We feel so lucky to have such supportive, creative and involved parents in our community. 





 

In support of the environment, we now share with you the messages that we received at school and encourage you to take them on board:
  • eat locally grown food that is in season, 
  • grow your own food as much as possible, 
  • start a compost heap (build the layers like lasagne) or worm farm if you haven’t already, and 
  • layer up and wear wool instead of turning on the heater.

Woolly Tuesday / Environment Day - 5th June


This Tuesday 5th June is Environment day and our Green Team have been hard at work coming up with a way that we can support the environment in our school environment.  They have decided that to save energy we will not turn on any of the heating and will instead have a warm and woolly day.  Everyone needs to rug up nice and snugly to keep warm.

We will also have a few other special activities with a focus on the environment. Libby and Peta will be running a “magic compost” interactive show with the Preps, which promises to be wonderfully messy fun.
