Transport for Greater Manchester have funded an interactive theatre presentation to educate and motivate our Y5 pupils to help improve their local air quality safely and sustainably.

The project enables pupils to identify the causes and health consequences of poor air quality, and to address ways in which they can avoid contributing to poor air quality, such as using sustainable transport.

Abbie Ayre and the Shed of Science is designed to:

    • Raise awareness of the potential consequences of poor air quality on health and well-being
    • Identify the causes of poor air quality
    • Understand ways pupils can reduce their negative impact on air quality
    • Motivate pupils to improve their air quality by walking, cycling or using public transport, especially for the daily journey to school
    • Investigate the positive benefits of using sustainable travel 
    • Inspire pupils to motivate your entire school to make a positive change on air quality
