Our Pet Rocks



Our Pet Rocks


           As part of our focus on innovation, the children designed and created their own Pet Rocks this week. They then used the strategy of 'upcycling' to be innovative and create habitats for their pet rocks with recycled materials, i.e. cardboard boxes, lids, bottles, coloured card, pipe cleaners etc. The children were very taken with their creations and excited about taking them home.

The children (and teachers) were exhausted with achievement, having walked 6kms, and were pleased to be back at school.
