Nine topics:
1. Energy

As you know we have achieved Eco Schools status and the Green Flag Award. Team Green meet regularly to discuss Green issues in school. We met to vote for our name (Team Green) and to choose the winning poster for helping everyone in school to save water. We have also met to choose our school Eco code. Information about our Eco School work is on the noticeboard outside Class 6.

Honey Day!!
The year two children had lots of fun extracting our first batch of honey. Well done bees!!
The bees are very happy!
Mrs Grayson and Mrs Simpson have been very busy looking after our bees at school. We now have two hives and are waiting for a new queen to hatch. Fingers crossed for some honey soon!
Bee Inspection
The bees have passed the inspection with flying colours. They are all healthy and were very friendly. We have started to collect wax to make candles or handcream!
