# Celebrating Earth Day

Park Road Community Primary School marked Earth Day with a vibrant programme of activities that brought environmental awareness to life for pupils of all ages.

The Celebrations for Earth Day, an annual event to raise awareness about environmental protection, included classrooms and outdoor spaces being transformed into hubs of creativity. Across the school, pupils explored themes of sustainability, growth and appreciation for their local environment through hands-on learning.

Year 6 pupils took their learning outdoors, spending the day observing the environment around them. Using the changing season as inspiration, the children sketched scenes from nature before turning their observations into detailed watercolour paintings. Blossoming trees, fresh greenery and spring skies featured strongly in the artwork, which reflected a strong sense of calm focus and respect for the world around them.

In Reception, the youngest pupils were busy nurturing new life of their own. Children carefully watered sunflower seeds they had planted, learning first-hand about growth, responsibility and patience.

Meanwhile, Key Stage 1 pupils gathered to listen to Green Bean, a story by author Anita Frost. The story prompted discussions about caring for the planet and making positive choices, helping pupils understand environmental messages in an age-appropriate and engaging way.

Earth Day provided a valuable opportunity to link curriculum learning with real-world issues and the day’s activities highlighted a shared commitment to nurturing both creativity and environmental responsibility across the school community.
