A busy month!

Chicken Message Library Bags Update:
They are finally finished and we must say, we are very pleased with our final products.Each of our library bags contains an important message we wish to share with other students and our school community, hence our idea to display them on library bags that others would get to see regularly.
Amazing chicken bags
Some of the messages we used on our bags were:
Take chickens out of cages and give them space to move.
Free Range chickens have better lives.
Free the caged chickens.
Healthy chickens lay healthy eggs.
Free Range eggs come from happy chickens.
Caged eggs come with a consequence.
Treat chickens with the same respect you like.
Chickens deserve a good life.
If you were a chicken would you live in a cage?
