Don't bin it, bring it!

Next week, Bitterne Manor will be supporting a scheme to allow people to bring in small unwanted electrical items to school for recycling. We are collecting small items like phones, mp3 players or toasters which will then be passed on to a recycle company so that valuable components and parts can be used to make new things. There is also a competition to see which school in the city can collect the most!


By recycling your electricals, you are also contributing to the protection of Hampshire’s beautiful and diverse environment for future generations. The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive states that waste electrical goods cannot be sent to landfill and therefore must be properly treated and disposed of separately from household rubbish. This is because some substances used in household electrical items are potentially hazardous to the environment so it is important that they are disposed of properly and safely.


So...don't bin it, bring to school between Monday 18th June and Friday 22nd June - thanks!

CUP WINNERS and more sports!

Bitterne Manor Boys were worthy winners uf the Solent University Schools Cup! There was a tense semi-final that went to penalties, then sudden death. With a cracking shot from one of our year 5 boys took us to the final which Bitterne Manor beat Townhill 1-0. Our girls also reached the semi-finals, winning every game in their group. All the children made us extremely proud. Mr Puckett has done a fantastic coaching job! Summer 1 was jam packed with sports. We had cricket and multi-skills coaches in. We also took part in Cricket matches and a Swimming Gala. Besides the weather, Summer 2 is hotting up to look full of events too. With a tennis festival, city athletics, cricket tournament, rounders tournament, sports day and of course many olympic activities for the children to take part in.

Year 3 - Plant pots!

Year 3 have been very busy making clay pots to sell at the Summer Fayre.  

Year 3 visit Fairweather's!

 
 

 

 

Year 3 had an amazing time visiting Fairweather's learning garden in the New Forest. We all learnt so much about how to look after plants and grow our own vegetables. We all worked hard and used our team work skills to get our jobs completed.
After all our hard work we went for a picnic in the New Forest.
A great day was had by all!  

Year 3 - Our class garden.

We have all been busy in our class garden. We have lots of plants some that we choose because we can eat them, some that smell good, some that have an interesting texture and some just because they are  colourful. Please come and have a look at all our hard work.

Year 3 - How plants grow!

Year 3 have enjoyed learning about how plants grow. We thought about the best conditions to grow plants in our school garden and have our fingers crossed.

We have been very lucky to have Miss Brook as a student who helped us learn about the different parts of plants and why each part is very important. Thank you Miss Brook for all your help!

Queen's Jubilee

Year R enjoyed making crowns, and icing and decorating red, white and blue biscuits, to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee.
