Thank you to Parklands Vets in Drumahoe for visiting our school. We found out how microchips work and the children got to scan the teddy dog to find the micro chip. We tested our oxygen level with the device that is used when dogs are in surgery and we found out about the work that vets do. We also met a very cute lamb.

Thanks to Anna from NI Water for visiting our whole school to educate us on looking after our water and reducing water use and blockages. We were given some great advice on how to make better choices such as having a shower over a bath. Anna challenged us to have a shower in just 4 minutes! We are so excited to try to improve our use of water in school, watch out, our eco kids are coming!
