Global and Local Issues -Love Your Earth Valentine Celebration

On Tuesday, Eden organised a wonderful Love Your Earth Celebration for the prep school. There were a number of different activities.

The children watched a performance of ,  Eeney Miney Grow...A delightful environmental mime performance by a deaf performer, Sibo. The production company made a generous donation to the Acting for Rhinos campaign.

Everyone came dressed in Earth colours.

At the same time there was a most informative talk for parents by Marilina Lewis on healthy eating and how it affects your life and environment. The grade 6 and 7 pupils joined their parents and were most inspired.

The rest of the children went back to class and did an activity with their parents once the talk was over.

The grade O's read the Lorax and made truffling trees.

The grade ones decorated recycled containers and planted an indoor garden.

The grade two made flowers to use later as part of their "Jack and the Beanstalk" stories.

The grade threes made healthy eating posters to display around the school.

The grade four and five children had a quiz on Our Earth and the human Body in the lecture theatre.

Overall it was a most successful day. Thanks to all of those involved.
