Looking after our Koha Garden





LI - We are learning to look after our environment by adopting a koha garden
We have been very lucky to have Mrs Robertson, the gardening guru, with us this year. We have been learning how to weed and water the garden. We also learnt how to grow vegetables from our koha garden. We grew many kinds of vegetables - kale, spinach, strawberries, tomatoes, potatoes, cabbage and more! We made kale chips and spinach dips and tried some of our vegetables fresh!

Narwhal Inquiry

For part of our Narwhal inquiry, we have had an in-depth look at the physical features of the Narwhal as well as its habitat and what it eats.

Everyone was asked to make the Narwhal out of playdough and write about the process of making the Narwhal, and including all the features.

Take a look at my creation! 


Freddy the Fish

As part of our Under the Sea inquiry, we explored the affects of pollution on sea creatures. 

Freddy the Fish was a happy fish swimming through the clean water. He noticed that the ocean was starting to change. The water was getting warmer and there were more obstacles in his way.

Freddy swam through... soil from erosion, fertilisers, sun off, salt, acid rain, oil from cars and rusty metal. Freddy was not well. We realised that he won't survive long in the sea with all these pollutants contaminating our oceans.

Sink or Float?

Miss Runciman ran a science experiment with us. We wondered how sharks are able to stay afloat and move in the ocean so freely. 

We put water and oil in a small jar, shook it up and saw that the oil rises. 

After some research we found out that a shark’s liver is full of fat and oils and that is how they manage to stay afloat.

A fancy afternoon tea

This is the high tea experience and my story:
