Primary 1 have been learning that in winter time the birds are very hungry! This is because it is more difficult for things to grow in the cold months and it’s harder for birds to find food to eat and water to drink. The children made simple bird feeders in school - by threading some cheerios onto pipe cleaners, rolling pine cones in a mixture made with lard & oats and pushing some sunflower seeds into apples and hanging them from trees in our school grounds. We can wait to see the birds that come to them!
