A 香港六合彩资料图库 first school shone a spotlight on saving the world during their recent arts week.
Chawson First School in Droitwich focussed their annual arts week on the environment, to help children learn more about deforestation, plastic pollution, littering, recycling and impact on the polar regions.
Across the week, children were able to participate in drama, music and dance workshops and included visits from the Tribe Theatre, artist Oliver Rose, Severn Arts and Entw9 dance.
The event proved popular and educational for students, with several reflecting on what they had learnt throughout the week and the impact of how what we do and the choices we make affects the environment.
Olivia Howse, Art Subject Lead at Chawson First School said: 鈥淎rts week was a great success and was thoroughly enjoyed by both staff and children. It was a great opportunity to foster a passion for the arts and saving the environment. The children walked away from the week with new skills, interests and knowledge about how humans impact on the planet.鈥
One of the workshops included making a collaborative piece of art from fabrics the children had brought in that would have otherwise gone to landfill. Others included making inspiration musical pieces and putting together dance routines.
Outside of the workshops, there was the opportunity for children to create sculptures. Year 4 constructed an octopus made from recycling from home. The children carefully selected the materials that would be painted for his head and stuffed into his tentacles. Year 3 created a beautiful tree that represented deforestation, Year 2 a Polar Bear and Year 1 created a turtle from recycled bottles and a jelly fish.
