For science week, Year 5 enjoyed collecting recycled materials. They then used these recycled materials to construct an aeroplane. During our topic on 'Extreme Locations' we explored the different environments around the world and the impact that global warming has. We used the laptops to research and create an information brochure on ways to prevent Global Warming.
Science week Year 4
Recyclable materials:
In Year 6, we visited Al Khor beach to take part in a beach clean up. As you can see, we were able to collect a lot of different pieces of rubbish. Some of the rubbish was what you would usually expect (bottles, packets etc.) however, we did find some very interesting items, as you can see. This linked in with a lot of our Eco Warrior themes - Climate Change, Litter, Marine & Coast and Waste.
School Garden We have a school garden that we are going to maintain. We also have raised beds where we are going to grow vegetable through a rotation system of soil preservation.
Recycle Bins We have our recycle bins in every classroom which makes it easier to collect and separate the recyclable materials such as paper, cardboard and plastic from the general waste before they end up in landfills. By using recycle bins we can recycle more and more! We also recycle in the canteen now that it has opened again. ONLY WHITE PAPER! We have little green boxes in every classroom so we don't have to leave our classrooms to throw in white paper every time.
