Eco Club this week learnt about World Water Day Friday 22nd May 2024. This year’s theme is:

We talked about the importance of reducing our water consumption, keeping our water clean and helping people across the world access the clean water we all have a right to. The children loved learning about how we can help to reduce our water pollution by using more natural and biodegradable alternatives. 

Did you know you can use soap nuts as a natural alternative to washing liquid? 

Here is a lovely piece of work one our conscientious year 6 students created about what she’d learnt. Safiyya was fascinated to learn that only 2.5% of the world’s water is fresh water. The other 97.5% exists in the oceans. 

Eco Club this week we’re learning about World Wildlife Day which falls on Sunday 3rd March. This Years theme is Connecting People and Planet: Exploring Digital Innovation in Wildlife Conservation. 

We talked about how certain animals endangered and how humans have made adaptations to help in the conservation of them. The children shared their disbelief that anyone would actually want to not look after these beautiful animals. They expressed their wish to help and to understand better.
