Environment

Today, 5th June, we celebrate "World Environment Day". The slogan of this year is "THINK, EAT, SAVE"

Think about the food we waste.
Eat healthy, natural, local food.
Save food, using the left overs, buying just what you need and giving to others what you don´t need.

Last Friday, 31st May, we went to "As Pedreiras" the main Recreation Area of our surroundings. This place was an illegal rubbish dump 30 years ago, recuperated by an ecologist association in collaboration with children of our school. Now, we go there every year and make a revision of the trees planted there since then. It is a special day of joy and pride for all of us.

World Book Day

Minerales y rocas

En 4º de Primaria pusieron mucho interés en el tema "Minerals and rocks" así que empezaron a traer todo tipo de piedras. Sara trajo una bonita colección y Zaira otra, perteneciente a su tío. Grabamos un trocito.

Farm animals

En Infantil 4 años estuvimos trabajando los animales de la granja de nuestro concejo, para el proyecto de centro que estamos desarrollando este año sobre nuestro entorno próximo.
Esta actividad nos sirvió también para recordar los colores básicos  y cómo obtener otros, por ejemplo, el marrón.
Si queréis podéis acceder al vídeo que grabamos sobre ello.
