Autumn Term Inquiries

Fast Fashion

Our inquiry in the Autumn Term will focus on 'Fast Fashion'. The children will be introduced to the impact our clothes have on our planet.

Did you know...? 

 -100 billion items of clothes are produced around the world each year.

-Some types of clothes take around 200 years to decompose.

-The fashion industry is responsible for around 10% of our carbon dioxide emissions each year.

By producing billions of clothes every year, the fast fashion industry is also releasing waste and chemicals into our world, polluting and driving species to the brink of extinction. Is there a solution to being both fashionable and sustainable?

Our Classroom Climate

Throughout the year, the children will be involved with a project called Our Classroom Climate which aims to teach them about climate change and ways to reduce their own carbon footprint. As part of the project, the children will grow algae in the classroom. Algae absorbs carbon dioxide, making the air in our classroom 'cleaner' and 'greener'.

Did you know...?

-You can eat algae. It's actually very healthy and contains around 50% protein.

-Algae absorbs carbon dioxide 400 times faster than trees.

-High levels of carbon dioxide can make you feel unwell and make it hard to concentrate. In our classroom, we monitor carbon dioxide levels to make it a better place to learn. 

If you have any queries or concerns regarding your child's education and/or well-being, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Phillips or any other member of staff.
