Pupils from Years 2 – 6 attended the BETT Show at the ExCeL Centre last Friday as part of an educational visit. They took part in hands-on learning at a range of interactive stalls, including LEGO Education and Kahoot, and explored exciting examples of how technology is shaping the future of education.
This term, the School Councillors have been focusing on sustainability and have taken part in two valuable learning opportunities to further develop their understanding of recycling and environmental responsibility.
This week, they will participate in a workshop delivered by the Tower Hamlets Recycling Engagement Team, where they will learn about recycling processes within their local area and explore ways to improve recycling across the school. Next week, they will take part in a further sustainability workshop with the Great British Energy Solar Programme and will share their learning with the wider school community.
