We like to keep our environment clean and tidy at Harton Primary, so every Wednesday our School Council help Mrs Parker, our school caretaker. This week it was the turn of Year 1. They enjoyed the experience, and did a great job!
In preparation for the Summer Fayre, Year 1 pupils made wildflower seed bombs to sell on the Eco-warrior stall.
all. The bees and butterflies will enjoy the flowers when they bloom.
Thank you to everyone who bought Year 1’s wildflower seed bombs and bug hotels at our 2018 Summer Fayre. Hopefully it will have a positive impact on the bee, butterfly and bug community, and the flowers should look gorgeous too!
With the environment being at the forefront of many people’s minds these days, we thought we’d have a whole school Arty Party, re-designing old T-shirts in preparation for Europe Day.
The School Council led our Great Big School Clean assembly on Friday 9th March. They also took part in a school litter pick and found a surprisingly large amount of litter! There was a mixture of different materials – plastic, cardboard, foil and fabric.
We know that litter should be recycled wherever possible. Each class wrote a poem about litter to submit to the Eco Schools Litter-acy competition. We are really proud of all of the entries. Fingers crossed!
Following on from The Big School Clean Up, our School Council decided that they’d like to make this a regular event.
Mrs Parker, our school caretaker, kindly offered to help the School Council pick litter twice weekly in the school grounds.
This week it’s Year 1’s turn. They were delighted to find a butterfly garden ornament in the bushes, which they are going to upcycle.
