Environment Awareness Day

Infant and Junior pupils took part in an Environment Awareness Day. The purpose of the day was for the children to have a chance to think about the wonderful world we live in and how we can all be part of a mission to take care of it. School Council decided that for one day only, pupils could come to school dressed in recycled materials or as something in our environment that we need to think about taking care of.

The children came in many different kinds of costumes including endangered species, jewellery made out of recycled materials, the ocean and many more. We were able to enjoy looking at the tremendous effort everyone put into the day as we gathered for an assembly together. The School Council announced that funds raised would be used for purchasing owl boxes for The Cam Conservancy to put up around our local area.  Many of their old boxes have been damaged in the recent weather so the new boxes will provide a safe and warm place for owls such as Barn Owls to nest and hunt from in the winter months.

We are very excited to be able to contribute to our local environment in this way and to continue as a school to think about how we can be faithful stewards of this earth. (Miss Owens)
