Happy Father's Day

A relaxed and casual Mr T enjoys Father's Day breakfast.

Every year we host a morning for all of the special men in our lives. Our Father's Day breakfast is always a huge hit and has lots of dads and their children enjoying a bacon buttie and a coffee. Mrs Reid managed to snap some of us with our dad. We love our dads and think they are really awesome!

Our Super Gymnasts

 

 

Today our school gymnastics team went to the inter schools gymnastics competition. Some of our girls were part of the team and did very well indeed. J.S has reached the Champion of Champions level and we are all very proud of her and the entire team. Our friendly photographer Wayne Martin was there to capture the event and has snapped some of our girls just as they are about to compete.

 

A little ditty for dad

 

Mrs Reid spent some of Sunday having a walk along her favourite beach. After having Mr Cochrane from Sustainable Coastlines come and talk to us she took a good look at what else was on the beach. This is what she picked up in only a short space of time and it is most upsetting to see it is mostly plastic and lots of the rings from milk and juice bottles. It is a good reminder to us all to put our rubbish IN THE BIN and if you can't find one, take it home! Let's see if we can try to make a change in how we leave our beaches.

What an amazing visit

Our focus on education is straight forward: create large-scale awareness of the problem and provide achievable solutions. We teach simple steps and creative changes that anyone can make to prevent litter from getting to our coastlines in the first place. In other words: the fence at the top of the cliff, not just the ambulance at the bottom.

Today we were lucky enough to have Mr Cochrane come to talk to us about having a sustainable coastline. We learned that every piece of rubbish that goes into the drain ends up in our precious oceans where it causes problems. We were unlucky however in that Mr Cochrane showed us pictures of sea life that had been killed through eating plastic. We also saw a turtle that was disfigured from getting the plastic ring from a milk bottle stuck around its middle. It was really horrible to see and it showed us how careful we have to be with our rubbish.
As a class we learned that we need to make sure that any rubbish goes into the bin and if we see rubbish we must pick it up so it cannot get into our waterway.
We are trying to organise a rubbish clean up of our local Causeway and we will keep you informed of what happens.

How our rubbish is recycled

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As easy as that! Now you can see how our waste gets recycled. When you wave your recycling goodbye it heads off on a huge adventure to become new items that you may use again one day.
