We had a visit from Briony at the council. Here are some of the children's responses to that visit.
When Briony came to Highfield School to tell us about what
goes in each bin, she said, “We have to keep our Earth nice and tidy.”
We can keep our Earth tidy by putting things in the bin and
in the dump. We do not put things on the ground because otherwise we will be
littering, so I put things in the right rubbish bins.
At the end, when she was finished talking to us about the
bins I said, “Thank you for teaching us about the bins.”

OUR PLANET IS SPECIAL
When
Briony came to Highfield School she told us what goes in what bin and how our
school is unique for separating our rubbish. She showed us what the earth’s
beaches look like when they have a lot of rubbish from people littering on the
beaches. She also shared with us what amazing people could do with scraps and
she asked us what is going on in the world that is not good. An
example of this is all the trees that are being destroyed around the
world resulting in some animals not having a home or food to eat. We enjoyed Briony’s visit to our school
because she was very interesting and we hope she comes to visit again.

SAVE THE EARTH
Once
upon a time there lived a nature woman and she was the Mother Earth. She was very sad because people were
littering and treating Mother Earth horribly.
She was so sad she went to God straight away. God suggested “Make some signs”. So she made signs all night. 12 hours later she woke with a start. Then she started to stick signs up all over
Earth. But it didn’t work and the humans
just ignored the signs. So she went to
God again and he said “Invite all the Presidents, Kings and Queens to a
meeting”. So this is what she did. Lots of them were there and here are some of
their names :USA (President Obama), Australia ( Prime Minister Guillard), New
Zealand (Prime Minister John Key), France (President Hollands and Prime
Minister Ayrault), England (Queen Elizabeth II and Prime Minister
Cameron). Then she started to
speak. She said “Stop this mess”! “My rivers are running rotten. My skies are
being polluted. My animals and birds
will die. So tell your country or I
will”. But it didn’t work so she went to
God again. And God said “Show them how
to look after you, Mother Earth”. “OK”
she stuttered. So she went to every
house in the world, lifted a roof tile off each house and she put pictures of
what was happening to her. Then when the
people woke up they saw the pictures and they thought let’s change the world so
they did.
