Clean Up Australia Day

Last Friday 1st March Year 6 walked to the Village Green to do their part in keeping our environment clean. Many miniscule pieces of glass and plastic, along with bigger scraps of paper were collected. Our discussions in class have helped us to understand that rubbish can be swallowed by innocent birds who could choke or become ill as a result. Rubbish can also travel into drains leading to waterways and eventually the ocean. You can guess what happens next. Fish and other sea creatures think this rubbish is food and eat it or become trapped in sea junk and we all know that plastic never breaks down.

Thank you Year 6 and the whole school for helping to preserve the natural environment  for future generations.
