Thursday, 22nd April - Earth Day 2021. Our TY's were busy in the garden weeding, scattering wild flower seeds and hanging bird feeders.
1st year CSPE had a mini-photography exhibition of photographs and artwork on display in the hall. All the images are taken by the class, none are from a google search! We invite you all to look and enjoy the joy of nature.
