We were really excited to see the raised beds built outside Class 5 and Class 7. This will mean that each Key Stage 1 class now have their very own growing space. We have already planted a rose in each bed and are looking forward to seeing what each class decide to put in their area.

A big thank you for all the Morrisons vouchers you collected. We managed to get 1775 vouchers and have ordered some very exciting resources for Eco-Warriors to use in school! One of which is a wormery! We are eagerly awaiting their arrival so we can make our own compost for our flower beds!

Following on from Eco-Week and the success of a letter that Class 9 wrote to Peter Davies, the Mayor of Doncaster, we are now able to start recycling our tetra-pak milk cartons. We are now thinking through the practicalities of this and hope that this will be up and running soon!

Since achieving our Bronze Eco-schools award we are now working towards the Silver award. One of the criteria is that a parent attends some of our meetings, so we are very pleased to welcome Mrs Isle as an honorary Eco-Warrior! If any other parents wish to be involved or have any ideas please contact Miss Harrison, Miss Griffiths or Mrs Isle.
