The Nature Table:
Each teacher is setting up a nature table. We would like you to explore our local area to find items for your class’ table. You could visit place such as parks, woodland areas or you may just go into your garden. Your challenge is to collect things you think are beautiful or interesting and bring them into school for the nature table.
Remember picking living things e.g. pulling branches from trees or picking living flowers is
harmful to the environment.
Which class will have the
most interesting
nature table?

Leaf Bingo:
Each class has a leaf sorting bingo sheet. Your class challenge is to fill your leaf sheet. When out and about in your local area, try and collect leaves. Bring them into school and see if they are on our bingo sheet. If they are, ask your teacher if you can glue them on. The first class to return a full bingo sheet to Mr Imbush will be the winners.

Recycling home project:
What can I use?You can use anything that is safe to use that you would normally throw away. This may include plastic bottles, card board boxes, newspapers, bottle lids and magazines. If your parents allow you to use cans and glass please be very careful.
The aim of this challenge is to use our rubbish to make something
new. You may use glue or tape to stick your model together and
paint or pens to colour it. Everything else must be things you would normally throw away.
