In December Primary 5 were learning about energy sources in Japan and the looked into nuclear energy before and after the earthquake and tsunami.
This is what fukushima nuclear power plant looked like before the earthquake.
The bottom corridor of our school use compost bins to gather up all of their fruit skins, so two p7s go around the classes, collect the small buckets and empty them in to the large bins at the back of the school, then after that they go to the first aid room and wash out the buckets, then they go and deliver them back to the classes.
On the 11th of April the whole school did a litter pick up and we picked up an out standing amount of litter which weighed 40 kg. The places we cleared were…
The school grounds,
In between the infant school and sandersons wynd football field
and Along the path at the school fences.
All of the classes went out with thier buddies, it was good to see the area clean and the eco commitee don’t hope to see it back the way it was.
The whole school are taking part in a potato competition ,everybody would like to win and we hope there will be no stealing like last time . They have been growing for some time now and soon they will get weighed.
