Pond news

This year our Year 4 pupils entered a competition for Seven Trent water because of all of the activities we do outdoors in our school grounds. Along with the pond re-creation we also received new nets and pond dipping equipment to use. The Year 4 pupils drew pictures to show the design that we wanted. Seven Trent water also added a seating aria around the pond and log piles near the pond. Mrs Martin and the Year 4 pupils had lots of meetings and they discussed what they wanted the pond to look like. During February half term break, 9 people came from Severn Trent and spent two days on site when they put a path all the way round the pond. thanks to seven trent we now have a nice new pond where Silverhill pupils can enjoy pond dipping and finding new pond creatures.
