5th and 6th class spent this afternoon in our outdoor classroom investigating and classifying leaves from all the trees on our school grounds. They then did some beautiful leaf rubbings. A great way to celebrate National Tree Day. They have also collected lots of acorns and chestnuts which they are planting out in pots at the moment. This is such an important part of environmental care and our Green Schools philosophy. It was also good for everyone's wellbeing to spend time outside on such a beautiful day. Tomorrow we are planting some trees that have been gifted to us. More pics tomorrow. PS Thanks to Belturbet Men's Shed who made this lovely seating area for us a couple of years ago. It has really enhanced our outdoor space
