NO WRAP DAY!

Yesterday was 'No Wrap' Day. We brought our lunches to school without wrappers. What a great way to reduce the amount of rubbish in our school! Well done to the Environment Team!

Wallwisher - Reflections of our learning.

This is what we discovered from our excursion to CERES.

WOW! Wipe Out Waste!

This term we will be learning about recycling and reusing to reduce the amount of rubbish we create. The term has started off with a wonderful excursion to CERES last Friday where we learnt all about the importance of recycling and caring for the environment.

Here are some of our discoveries!

I discovered that the litter trap stops the rubbish from going into the creek. RO'C

I discovered that some people put rubbish into the creek and I feel sad. MM

I discovered that rubbish without a triangle can't be recycled. DB

I discovered that worms live in the dirt (soil). They make the soil healthy. LO'C
I discovered that worms made soil. They eat the food scraps and then they do a poo. This goes into the soil. WB

At CERES they recycle everything. The Preps were impressed by the bike shed. People bring their old or unwanted bikes here for others to take parts and reuse pieces. We loved the arch way made from old bicycle wheels!
