THE BANNOCKBURN BUGLE 2019-2020 - GET INVOLVED!

Polish school partnership - Pollution in Poland

Some children from Grade 5 (equivalent Year 6) at a school in Poland called Zespół Szkolno-Przedszkolny w Chynowie got in contact with Mrs Seaton, after they heard about our local area & pollution-themed photography competition. They wanted to see what our local area is like and what kinds of pollution problems we suffer with in South East London; their school is in a village called Chynów, which is in a rural area approximately 40km from Warsaw (capital city). They have sent us some pollution-themed photos from their town. It looks like they have a problem with litter and fly-tipping... what could they do to help stop this?

It is hoped we might exchange letters with this school in the future and work on some more projects together - tell your International Team rep(s) about any ideas you on how we can collaborate!
