  • Eco Celebration - Year 2 Litter & the local community

    Published 25/10/24

    Year 3 completed a litter pick in Heath Park. They analysed their data and concluded that there was too much litter in the local area.  They then designed informative posters encouraging local people to use the bins provided or take their litter home. The children also wrote to the University Hospital of Wales asking them to take care of their equipment, as quite a few plastic medical gowns were found on their litter pick in the park.  The children shared and celebrated their positive action in a whole school assembly.

  • Eco Celebration - Year 2 Eco Sandwich Wraps

    Published 16/04/24

    In Year 2, we completed an eco-activity where we investigated what we use to wrap our sandwiches. After carrying out a survey, we found out most children bring their food wrapped in cling film. After researching, we learnt this one-use plastic is bad for the environment, so we decided to think of a different way to wrap our food. Using the iPad, we researched different options and chose beeswax wraps as the best choice because they are reusable. We then decided to make our own beeswax wrap! We designed, measured, decorated and made our own wraps and now use them to wrap our tasty treats in! Year 2 put a short presentation together to 'show and share' their learning with the rest of the school. Have a look! 

     

    If you would like to make your own, here are instructions on how to make a beeswax wrap.
