This weekend we had a lovely morning establishing our school community garden. The weather was kind!
We were joined by parents, carers and children from year groups 2 and 3.

We have also sown a variety of seeds, including carrots, beetroot, onion, spring onion, radish, cauliflower and kale.
Year 4 gardening club and top site dragon club will be maintaining the garden by making sure our plants are well fed and watered throughout the summer term.
We can’t wait to see how our garden develops and enjoy the fruits of our labour!

Year 3 - River Pollution immersion activity, by Mrs Kisby
Date: 25th Apr 2022 @ 1:13pm
Year 3 started the term off today by observing and discussing the impact of pollution in our rivers.
The children went to the outdoor classroom and observed a range of pollution that was collected from the Rive Mersey. They then thought about how the pollution came to be in the river, the impact this has on the local environment as well as the impact on the creatures that live in the river.
They were left to think about what changes need to be made and how they could use their voice to make the change. This will lead us into our new English unit.
