Climate Action Week
Climate Action Week was on from October 14th
– 20th and each class in the school carried out activities each day
to learn all about climate change and its effects. 4th Class
researched, designed and illustrated a book about Climate Change on ‘Book
Creator’ on the iPads. We also wrote acrostic poems. 5th and 6th
Class worked in groups to create topic projects.
We made posters on the theme of Climate Change. The
Green Schools Committee organised a Climate Action Day on Friday 18th
. We dressed up in blue and green as a symbol of earth.
We had a ‘Zero Power
Hour from 1 – 2 pm. Teachers were asked to turn off all power so that teaching
and learning became ‘unplugged’. We will be carrying out more activities throughout the year as part of our Green Schools theme Biodiversity – Energy. The pupils of Scoil Mhuire have an urgent
message to tell everyone. Watch the video below to hear their message. Let us
be the change for the future. There is no Planet B.
