• Photos: Arctic Fox 'Chill Out' Exhibition

  Fri 22 Nov 2019

  Wow! What an amazing Arctic Fox ‘Chill Out’ Exhibition

   

  The children put together a thoughtful and innovative ‘Together & Wellbeing’ theme with children excitedly sitting with family members to share their exhibition experience.

   

  The children kicked off the exhibition with a musical singing rendition of ‘Happy’ and then showcased their artistic talents of dance, artwork, pom pom and badge making demonstrations.  They also showed off their presentation and entrepreneurial skills and finally a chill out guide of meditation for the adults.

   

  After, the children organised refreshments of tea, coffee and yummy homemade biscuits. It was a wonderful atmosphere where they chatted and presented family members with their current school work.

   

  A big well done to Arctic Fox class and thank you to everyone who came, we hope you enjoyed our ‘Chill Out’ Exhibition!

  Eco Warriors

  Miss Braid and her Eco-Division of the Agents of Change have been making a difference in school. There is now a compost bin in the plant area of the decking. Our aim is become a Plastic Free School and to help us achieve that please try on send children in with water bottles (rather than the single use plastic ones) and use more reusable packaging in lunch boxes such as bees wax wraps or reusable silicone bags such as these.

   

  We would love to carry on with our crisp packet recycling initiative but need somewhere to donate them to. Do any of our children collect an send off crisp packets with their scout or club/group that we could pass them on to? Please let Miss Braid know.
