Different Countries and their culture

 We have been learning about different cultures around the world. The students researched about the culture of a country that they wanted to learn about. This was done as a homework project and then they presented it to the class. 

Litterless lunches

 We have been fortunate to have Anouk -Environmental Educator come into our class this week to talk to us about Litterless lunch boxes.  

A honey wrap is an environmentally friendly alternative to using glad wrap. It can be used for wrapping lunches, leftovers, and snacks, The beeswax covered cloth can be used again and again, reducing rubbish!

 We learnt about 

Reduce: Cut down on packaging and food waste by purchasing fresh produce and bulk bin items.

 Reuse: Pack lunches in reusable containers. 

Recycle: Use recycle bins instead of tossing recyclables in the trash. 

Respond: Take action and support Nutritious, waste-free meals. Make a difference for yourself; make a difference in your community.

Then we made bees wax wraps. 

    

Our Portraits

We have learnt how to sketch our faces and then we used people  paint to colour our face. We painted the background using watercolours. Then we blended the watercolours to create our hair. When we had finished the painting we add detail using sharpies.
