These\u00a0<em>goals<\/em>\u00a0have the power to end poverty, fight inequality and stop climate change. Guided by the\u00a0<em>goals<\/em>, it is now up to all of us, governments, businesses, civil society and the general public to work together to build a better future for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>P7R has been concentrating on Global Goal 13 which is all about the climate and recently they were invited to take part in a design a garden competition and this garden had to concentrate on Global Goal 13 and climate change. The winning design was to be constructed at Hazlehead Park. With this information, the class set off on a fact finding visit to Hazlehead Park. They would meet there with the park ranger and find out about the environment and the location of the flower bed. The children also took the opportunity of visiting some of the visitor attractions at the park.<\/p>\n<p>On returning to school the class carried out some report writing and I attach a couple of reports which have been written by the pupils.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Hazlehead Park Visit &#8211; Report<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">On Friday 16th of February 2018, the whole of P7R went for a visit to Hazlehead Park. The ranger of the park, called Alan, showed us around the Pets&#8217; Corner and the space where we are placing the winner&#8217;s garden.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">P7R went to Hazlehead Park because the whole class entered a garden competition. We also went to go and see all of the animals. There were lots of animals and they were all so cute! After visiting the animals we went to go and see where the garden will be placed. Then we went to play in the park.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">The best part of the visit was when Alan told us about the competition and we were allowed to plan our gardens when we got back to the class. I learned that one python could swallow you whole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">\u00a0Keeley Duncan<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"jetpack-slideshow-noscript robots-nocontent\">This slideshow requires JavaScript.<\/p><div id=\"gallery-6719-1-slideshow\" class=\"jetpack-slideshow-window jetpack-slideshow jetpack-slideshow-black\" data-trans=\"fade\" data-autostart=\"1\" data-gallery=\"[{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/riverbank.aberdeen.sch.uk\\\/blogs\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/02\\\/IMG_0207.jpg?fit=800%2C600\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;6740&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;IMG_0207&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Primary 7R at Hazlehead Park all ready to find out about Climate Change!&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/riverbank.aberdeen.sch.uk\\\/blogs\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/02\\\/IMG_0139.jpg?fit=800%2C600\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;6738&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;IMG_0139&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;A visit to the aquarium and reptile house.&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/riverbank.aberdeen.sch.uk\\\/blogs\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/02\\\/IMG_0185.jpg?fit=800%2C600\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;6739&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;IMG_0185&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Alan, the Park Ranger, explains to the pupils about the Climate Change Garden and where it will be located.&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/riverbank.aberdeen.sch.uk\\\/blogs\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/02\\\/IMG_0306.jpg?fit=800%2C597\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;6741&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;IMG_0306&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Trees are important for our climate.

We, then, entered a competition with lots of other schools to build a climate change garden.Whoever wins will have their garden built in Hazlehead Park.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\">Personally, I would say that the best part of the trip, by far, would have been visiting Pets&#8217; Corner.
