5 Blue Canal Trip

5 Blue went on an adventure to Coventry Canal we went to investigate whether the canal was a type of river. We looked at the features of a canal, we mapped our route and drew a field sketch. On the way back we analysed the types of litter and discussed ways in which we could make the canal cleaner and safer.

5 Blue were a credit to the school, representing themselves and their families exceptionally well, as i have come to expect.

Well done on a fantastic trip 5 Blue.

Can you tell me something you have learnt today?

    I have learnt a canal is a man made feature and a river is a physical feature so that is a difference.
