This year, our school has joined a number of initiative to encourage our children to learn about air quality in London.
In year 5, we have had air quality workshops – learning about how pollution moves with the wind and can become trapped, learnt about the cleanest ways to commute to school, had an intensive BikeIt training course, and conducted experiments to measure the air quality at Lansbury Lawrence.
BikeIt training in January 
Creating moss walls to capture PM particles 
Installing diffusion tubes to measure nitrogen dioxide 
Using windmills to understand air flow in our playground 
Measuring the effects of exercise on our body 
Learning about cleaner ways to travel in London
In addition, our school joined forces with SusTrans to hold a street party with local schools during the spring term.
Today we are proud to share with you this video which features children from Kahlo class who voiced their opinions on why clean air in Tower Hamlets is absolutely necessary. Together with GlobalActionPlan, we are asking business van drivers to ditch diesel and switch to a zero emission vehicle.
