4. Eco Club We would like to thank all classes who have already taken the time to watch and count birds for the Big Bird Watch 2015. Since this is a short week, if you haven’t had a chance to count the birds and would like to, you can do so today or tomorrow. Happy Birdwatching! Remember to give your Master sheet with class results to Mrs Dufort. Thank you to those classes that have already given it in. Results for Papdale will be entered online next week. Last Tuesday was too snowy to do the Litter Survey so we will try to complete it tomorrow. Rhys and Liam will join Mr MacKinnon for the survey. This will take place straight after the morning break. Thank you.
