BECOMING WATERWISE

2003

 Once again we are continuing to cover water related activities each term. The continued lack of consistent heavy rain makes it essential that we keep the children focused on the efficient use of this vital resource.
For the third year in a row our year 6/7 class took part in the Murder Under The Microscope project. Check put our Catchment Management Plan.
