This month Rebecca’s 6th Class embarked on a journey of education about ocean pollution and preservation. We launched our journey by doing a live Zoom session with Padraic Creedon, the Outreach Officer from the Galway Atlantaquaria – National Aquarium of Ireland. We discussed the topics of pollution in our oceans, ocean energy and ways we could help to preserve and protect marine life and the sea. We then set about engaging in Marine Pollution Projects. In Art we explored the use of fabric and fibre with recycled materials to developed awareness poster boards. We then finished off our projects by writing poems about our topics.
