What a fabulous day working alongside North Tyneside Neat Street Team! We managed to clear 16 bags of litter! In school and around our community @Newyorkprimary
We have our Bird boxes up! Thank you very much for the donation of these handmade boxes I'm sure they will be very well used from our wildlife around school @Newyorkprimary
Our woodlands are filled with amazing wildlife all year round! Have a go at spotting some of these and be sure to let us know what you find! β https://t.co/MTPPhTEoAP
An average garden accommodates more than 2,000 different species of insect! Very few of these creatures cause significant damage to our plants, and there are many more insects that actually help us to control the ones that do!
Attract insects by building a bug mansion.
This term we went down to explore more of the woodland area and do some wild flower planting. Here are some of the other activities we did too @StephensonRail@Newyorkprimary
Eco Club we collected leaves from outside all shapes and sizes and then created some amazing leaf art. Lots of creative pieces and also some leaf families π @Newyorkprimary
This week is #WalkToSchoolWeek. A generation ago 70% of primary school children walked to school, now itβs less than half!
As part of the transport topic, @EcoSchools promote sustainable travel to school. It's good for us, and for the planet!
Look at some of the produce we have managed to grow! Potatoes and Parsnips we have started to plant more flowers and veg in our planters this year π₯@Newyorkprimary
Nursery were keen to start filling our vegetable patch. Today we planted potatoes and are very excited to observe their growth @Newyorkprimary@NYPS_ECO
Here is our New York Primary School Eco Code
We hope that we can look at this around school and all try and make one small change to help look after our school and its environment
