This week we have been finishing off our Geography topic all about our local community. During our walk around Moortown, we completed a survey about what we liked and disliked about the local area. Afterwards, discussed what we would like to change about our locality. The class decided that it would be great if there were some more trees in The Green. So, we did another survey! This time we asked every class in school whether they would like more trees – the answer was a unanimous yes! Most children wanted some apple trees.
We then set about trying to make it happen! First step, persuade Mrs Weekes by sending her a letter. The children did an amazing job with their letters and they were delivered to Mrs Weekes on Thursday. We are awaiting her reply…
Help at home by discussing with your child ways to improve our locality. You could also discuss how we can persuade Mrs Weekes further to put apple trees in The Green.
