WE ARE A GREEN FLAG SCHOOL!

 

Update - March 2010 

The greenhouse (made from recycled plastic bottles) is finished.  Big thanks to the Greenhouse Club and Mr Townley for all their hard work completing this project.  We are already planning what we will grow in our greenhouse.  We have been 'chitting' seed potatoes ready for planting, and the garlic bulbs are growing nicely. 

 

Update - January 2010

In our meetings last term, several very good suggestions were received and passed on to Mrs Spooner for her to consider.  The time capsule is almost ready for burying - a date will be set at our next meeting.  The greenhouse is almost finished - just the roof to go!  We are going to decide what we would like to put into our greenhouse ready for planting in the Spring/Summer.  We planted some garlic bulbs in our vegetable plot just before Xmas - and they have started to grow!  We have started a school collection to raise money to send to Haiti. 

 

 

September 2009

The School and Eco council held their first meeting of the new term.  Suggestion boxes are going to be placed in each classroom so that the children can put forward their ideas.  Joe Perry had a great idea; he suggested that we create a time capsule.  Each child is going to create some work to put inside the time capsule which will be buried in our school garden.  We are going to take part in the Keep Wales Tidy event by carrying out a litter-pick in and around our village.
