Bug Hotels

At our school we believe that homework should relate specifically to the learning that happens in 

our classrooms. 

Each term we try to have an interactive homework task that children and parents can work on together.

Our recent Social Sciences learning involved reviewing our Enviroschool projects that we did last year 

to improve our school environment.

As part of this, the homework task was to make bug hotels. 

Bug motels can encourage beneficial insects into our gardens.

Here are our amazing bug hotels!

Enviro Action Day

As an Enviro school we have been learning about our school's landscape, and how we can maintain our landscape for future generations. 

We thought about, discussed and planned what we think our school's landscape needs, for the benefit of our school community.

We have a bush area at school that we haven't been able to play in. The class decided that a good project would be to prune and tidy the undergrowth which might lead to students being able to safely play in the space.

To prepare, the class practised using a variety of gardening tools safely, and finally we got to put our ideas into action.

We think we've made a big difference to our playground area!
