News from Yr 2F 

What is a heavy footprint? We had some very interesting responses initially to this stimulus! 

This week in 2F we have been learning about a heavy and light environmental footprint. We explored current practices that promote a heavy footprint and how these practices could change to promote a light footprint. We engaged in some very interesting discussions about using energy from the wind and sun, recycling, electric cars, we even discussed the possibility of electric planes!

Here are some examples of the artwork we created in class showing a light footprint.

This linked in nicely with our recent excursion to CERES Educational Centre where we learned about the 6Rs-Rethink, Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Rot.
