Care of Our Waterways

Room 2 made this poster to show others the consequences of not taking care of our School environment.

Learning Intentions: We are learning to.....

•   identify the causes of pollution in our waterways.
• explain why it is important to keep our waterways clean?
• name ways we could do at St Patrick's School to keep our school environment and waterways clean and healthy. 

Room 2 Children write a story about their learning.

 

Room 2 picked up rubbish from the school field and near the fence. We found plastic bags, juice cartons, paper, lunch wrapping, foil, foil packets and bottles. 

 All of this rubbish will get into the drains when it rains. The rain will flush the rubbish out into the sea and our rivers. As a result the eels and the fish and all the living things will die because their home is polluted.

God gave us the Earth to enjoy but we spoiled it.
If we keep littering, our school will not be a safe place to learn and our waterways will not be a safe and healthy place for the sea creatures and people too.   

We should put our rubbish in our lunch box and take it home.
 Please don't litter. Save our waterways.

The Creation Story

On the first day God made the light. He called it day and he called the dark night. On the second day God made the sky. On the third day God made flowers, mountains, trees, islands, rivers and beaches. on the fourth day God made the fiery sun, sparkling moon and the dancing stars. on the fifth day God made the birds to glide in the sky and God made fish. On the sixth day God made man and animals. And on the seventh day God rested.

Caring for Our Earth...Our Common Home

Room 2 picked up the rubbish we found around our school. We put it in the bin so that it doesn't get into the drains. The rain will wash it out into the sea and rivers. Fish, eels and all the living things will die. This is very sad.

Room 2 picked up the rubbish we found around our school.

We found different types of rubbish. For example foil packets, plastic bottles, juice cartons, papers and mini packets. The rubbish will get into the drains. The rain will come down and will wash the rubbish out into the sea and rivers. This makes our rivers and the sea dirty and the fish and eels will get sick and die. 

Let us keep our rivers and the sea clean.

Room 2 went to pick up the rubbish around the school grounds.

We picked a lot of plastics, juice cartons, paper and foil. This rubbish will get into the drains and the rain will wash it out into the sea and rivers. The eels and fish will die because their home is polluted.

Please don’t litter!

Yesterday Room 2 children picked up rubbish from under the trees and near the fence.

We picked up plastics, foil paper, juice cartons, and paper. We put it all in the rubbish bin so it doesn’t get into the drains. The rain will wash it through the pipes and out into the sea and rivers. The fish will eat the rubbish. They might think the rubbish is food.

We can work together to protect our Earth.

Room 2 picked up rubbish at school.

We found plastic, juice cartons, paper, lunch wrapping and foil.

We put it all in the rubbish bin so that it doesn’t get into the drains. When it starts to rain the rubbish will wash down the drains and out into the sea and rivers. The fish and eels will die because their home is polluted.

We put rubbish in the bin or take it home. Rubbish will float down the drains when it rains. Then it gets washed down the pipes and out into the sea or into our rivers. This makes our rivers and sea dirty and the fish and eels will die.

Yesterday we picked up a lot of rubbish lying in the playground.

We found some bottles, foil packets, paper and juice boxes. So we said that we should pick it up and put it in the rubbish bin or in our lunchbox and take it home.

If we don’t put our rubbish in the bin it will be washed down the drain by the rain. Then rubbish will go through the pipes and out into our rivers and the sea. Then fish will get tangled in the rubbish and die.

Room 2 picked up the rubbish from around the school because the wind and rain will flush the rubbish down the drains. The rubbish will block our rivers and sea. The fish will get sick and die.

Room 2 picked up the rubbish we found around our school.

We put it in the rubbish bin so that it doesn’t get into the drains and get flushed down the drains and out into the sea and rivers. Fish will get poisoned and die if our rivers are full of our rubbish.
