This afternoon, the children have learnt all about recycle week. The children may be looking out for the recycling logo at home.

These are some of the logos they have recreated.

In Geography, we have been looking at the mountains in the UK.  The children are working really hard to develop their geography skills.  These are some of the children hard at work!

Recycle week is an annual event to promote and celebrate the importance of reducing our waste.

Managing the waste we produce through our everyday lives is important because we need to reduce, reuse and recycle resources.

This special week has been held since 2004 and its mission has been to encourage us to recycle more.

Together – We recycle 

Now is a great time to think about how our rubbish affects the world.

We can work together and step it up to help the climate crisis.

In Literacy, we are looking at stories from familiar settings. This week, we have read The Wrekin Giant.

We discussed the two characters in the story and the main events.

These are some of the amazing character Slinkys the children have made.

This is our new reading display which the children have created this week.

We are really pleased to see so many children reading at home. Keep it up 🙂

Remember, children get a treat for reading 5 times a week at home.

Thank you for your help and support with this.

Energy Saving Week is a national campaign with the aim to help and encourage people to save energy while cutting down on fuel costs at the same time.

The event was created in partnership with Citizens Advice, the Energy Saving Trust and the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. Many other organisations and charities often support the campaign, too.

Lots of advice and guidance is provided to help people save energy and money, including:

• What financial support and discounts there are available
• Why they might want to consider changing energy suppliers
• Ways to invest in more effective insulation

Here is a video with more information about saving energy at home:
