There was a mixture of individual pieces, class collages and whole school collaborations on show, including a giant jellyfish made from old plastic packaging!

Following a story and a discussion about global warming, the children were inspired to take action. They raised money through a bake sale, a dress down day, a stall at the local church fete and donations from family and friends. The money will protect six and a quarter acres of rainforest from future destruction.
