Sustainability / Fresh Tastes - Damien Webb
Miss Jordan's Garden Update
We have had another successful week in the Greenhouse this week. We have continued to germinate new seedlings within the greenhouse and we have moved some of the more mature plants into different gardens around the school. The Sustainability leaders were able to pick different fruits and vegetables and have continued to show great leadership with keeping the greenhouse running well and looking after the fish. The students have continued to enjoy their learning during sustainability lessons. We will continue to look at the energy consumption of the greenhouse and the energy that we are saving through the collection from our solar panels.
Earth Hour
On Friday the 29th of March, St Michael’s will be taking part in Earth Hour. During this time we will be turning off our lights and trying to minimise the amount of electricity that the school consumes. Through the week our Year 6 Sustainability Leaders will be visiting all classes to present a short presentation and explain to all classes how all students can be involved at school and at home.
Parent Green Team
We are in the final stages of putting together our ‘Parent Green Team’ which will be helping with planting new plants, moving plants in to different gardens and also small landscaping projects. If you are interesting please send Mr Webb an email to get involved. Any time that can be spared is greatly appreciated and helps to build a strong culture of sustainability within the school.
