0:01:12 > 0:01:17I love coming to this school to do my bird watching.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21There's lots of feeders to attract lots of different birds.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24There's birds that like to feed up high so they use
0:01:24 > 0:01:27these hanging feeders. Others feed on the ground
0:01:27 > 0:01:29so I'm putting food out for them.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Then, you just wait.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36Let's say the Green Balloon Club chant with some of our members.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45We love animals, plants, and birds!
0:01:45 > 0:01:47We love snails and slugs!
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Large and small, we love them all and we never,
0:01:50 > 0:01:56ever step on bugs! Cos we are the Green Balloon Club!
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Great! No sign of any birds yet.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02What other Green Balloon Club members up to?
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Oh, look, here are some other Green Balloon Club members
0:02:11 > 0:02:13at another school that loves nature.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17- Hello. What are you doing today? - Hello!
0:02:19 > 0:02:23Do you remember we planted seeds?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Look how much it's grown.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30We have a flower bed.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45I'm making a house so I can plant my seed.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47It's really fun.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55I've finished digging.
0:02:55 > 0:03:00You need to put the plant in the hole.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14It's taken three weeks to grow.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33I love getting all muddy.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Look how big it is.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51We're watering the plants.
0:03:51 > 0:03:58I can't wait for the vegetables to grow so I can eat them.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- We're planting seedlings now. - ALL: Bye!
0:04:05 > 0:04:06Bye, and thanks.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Let's see what our green team are getting up to.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Look, it's Cat and Skipper.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Let's check in with them.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Hi.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Hi, we're going doggy dancing again. Come on, let's go!
0:04:21 > 0:04:23DOG WHIMPERS
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Hello, Cat. Hello, Skipper.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37Hi, Sue and Chester. I want Skipper to do paw touch quicker.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41- Good, because we're going to put it to music.- Great!
0:04:41 > 0:04:44We've got to find music to suit Skipper.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48I'll show you what suits Chester and then we'll see what you can do.
0:04:48 > 0:04:55COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYS We're just going to lure like we did before
0:04:55 > 0:04:59so you can see the timing for Chester and the music.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04Oh, yes, Chester's skipping in time to the music.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Come on, Skipper, our turn.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16I think Skipper is just a bit faster than Chester
0:05:16 > 0:05:19but I've got some music to suit her better.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21FASTER MUSIC PLAYS
0:05:23 > 0:05:27Slow yourself down a fraction.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29That's it, till you've got her pacing nicely.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36That's better. He's enjoying that now.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Why does Skipper go faster than Chester?
0:05:39 > 0:05:43- Is it because she has shorter legs? - Yes, her shorter legs move faster
0:05:43 > 0:05:47to cover the same ground as Chester. Now we have better music,
0:05:47 > 0:05:51let's see if we can put those moves you've been practising to it!
0:05:51 > 0:05:56- MUSIC PLAYS - Good girl.- Keep it going. Good.- Other! Good girl.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00See how you've got to speed it up to keep with that music.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- I'll do the spin one now. - Good, yes.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Remember your footwork.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13Oh, you've been practicing the spin as well.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16A little bit quicker than that. Other way.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19That's looking really good.
0:06:19 > 0:06:24You keep practising because I've got a little surprise for you.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- Here we are.- Floyd's here! Look!
0:06:27 > 0:06:31I've brought Skipper's best friend Floyd to see you.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Hello, Floyd. - DOGS WHIMPER
0:06:33 > 0:06:39Why don't you show Floyd what Skipper's been doing.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41OK. Come on, Skipper.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- MUSIC PLAYS - Paw. Good girl. Other.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Good girl. Paw. Good girl.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Other. Good girl.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Aren't they good? Yes!
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Good girl. Good girl.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10Good girl. Good girl. Good girl, Skipper.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14FLOYD BARKS I think Floyd's enjoying that.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Good girl.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18HE BARKS
0:07:22 > 0:07:26# See the leaves in a spin
0:07:26 > 0:07:30# Tossed and blown by the wind
0:07:30 > 0:07:36# It's like they're waving summer goodbye
0:07:38 > 0:07:42# And the colours change to gold and brown
0:07:42 > 0:07:47# Flying high as they leave the ground
0:07:47 > 0:07:53# Until they're just a speck against the sky
0:07:53 > 0:07:58# I see them flying
0:07:58 > 0:08:03# Watch them flying
0:08:03 > 0:08:10# To places that are wonderful and new
0:08:10 > 0:08:14# To see them flying
0:08:14 > 0:08:21# It's just like angels on the wind
0:08:23 > 0:08:29# Can we come flying, too?
0:08:31 > 0:08:35# See the birds, how high they swoop
0:08:35 > 0:08:39# Full of grace, they loop the loop
0:08:39 > 0:08:45# Living free, so high above the ground
0:08:47 > 0:08:51# And they're making circles in the sky
0:08:51 > 0:08:55# Calling out, it's migration time
0:08:55 > 0:09:02# I wish that I could soar beyond the clouds
0:09:02 > 0:09:07# You see me flying
0:09:07 > 0:09:12# Watch me flying
0:09:12 > 0:09:19# In circles just like life that will renew
0:09:19 > 0:09:24# The birds are flying away
0:09:24 > 0:09:30# Returning in the spring
0:09:31 > 0:09:35# Yes, they'll come flying
0:09:35 > 0:09:39# Sun will be shining
0:09:39 > 0:09:47# We'll all go flying, too. #
0:10:06 > 0:10:09No sign of any birds yet but lots of squirrels.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13That's what happens when you put food on the ground.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15But I love watching them, too.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21Wow, a green parakeet! I didn't think I'd see one of them.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26They're not that common in this country but some do live here now.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32There's Green Balloon Club members all over the country.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Let's catch up with some now.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Look, it's Charlotte and Maddie.
0:10:37 > 0:10:42They've got something special to show us. Hello!
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Hello!
0:10:43 > 0:10:48My name is Charlotte and this is my little sister Maddie. We live in
0:10:48 > 0:10:52a special place filled with lots of furry, miniature animals.
0:10:52 > 0:10:57They're the cutest animals. Come and see.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02We have lots of tiny ponies.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06They are really soft and love being cuddled by us.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12This is Katie, she loves carrots.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19We help our mum look after the miniature ponies.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23We must make sure we care for them properly.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Now, we're going to pick out her feet but we must
0:11:26 > 0:11:29put her collar on first.
0:11:33 > 0:11:39They have very small feet so mud and stones can easily get stuck in them.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45And now I've done her feet.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54These miniature ponies are a lot smaller
0:11:54 > 0:11:57than normal ponies you'll find on a farm.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05This is Charlie. This is my pony, he's eight years old.
0:12:05 > 0:12:10He's a Shetland pony and I love him.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Look at my pony, she looks like a giant
0:12:15 > 0:12:18compared to my little sister's Shetland pony.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27We like riding our ponies. Let's show you.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31- First, we need to change into our riding clothes. Come on! - CLICKS HER TONGUE
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Now we're ready, we need to get the ponies ready.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Penny!
0:12:45 > 0:12:49- She's all tacked up and ready to ride. Come on! - CLICKS HER TONGUE
0:12:53 > 0:12:56It's time to go riding.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Thanks for visiting us and our ponies today. Bye!
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Bye. They're so lucky.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22I want one of them ponies, they're so cute.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25But I haven't really got anywhere to keep it.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Oh, look, here's a message from Sky.
0:13:28 > 0:13:33That's unusual. I wonder what she's up to at the moment.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Hello, there. I'm Sky.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39We've come to this lovely park to make something beautiful
0:13:39 > 0:13:42out of things we'd normally throw away.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47These bottles have interesting shapes, don't they?
0:13:47 > 0:13:52- Yes.- I like this one because it has bubbles.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56I like this one because it has these patterns on it.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00I like this one because it's yellow and yellow is my favourite colour.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04If you turn it on to its side,
0:14:04 > 0:14:08it reminds me of the creature we're going to make today.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11I wonder if you can guess what it's going to be.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16We've got to cover our bottles, they're looking a bit plain.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21Maybe we can use some of these bits of scrap paper.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26- I like this one because it makes everything look orange.- It does.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29This piece of paper is quite big.
0:14:29 > 0:14:35We're going to cut it out into a smaller piece like this.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39OK? Go round and round. Look.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43It looks like a long semi-circle.
0:14:43 > 0:14:48Can you see? We're going to need lots of these. Everybody get cutting.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52Put it in the bowl.
0:14:52 > 0:14:53That's great.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56We've got to get some of this
0:14:56 > 0:15:03sticky tape and stick a row of the shapes on to the sticky tape.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Thank you, Maya.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Look, lots of interesting shapes there.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Then, we stick it on the bottle.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Thank you, Maya.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Like that.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Oh, Maya, that looks cool! Does everybody else
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- want to have a go? - ALL: Yes.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24Everybody start working together.
0:15:29 > 0:15:30All the way around.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33- Yes.- There you go. Well done, Freddie.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35You've done a good job there.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38Making mine out of tissue paper.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40That's really pretty.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Now all we need is a fin and a tail.
0:15:48 > 0:15:55Oh, no, I think you've guessed what they are. We're making fishes!
0:15:55 > 0:15:59OK. So, what shape is a fin, everyone?
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- It's a triangle.- Yes, it is.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04We're going to get a
0:16:04 > 0:16:08piece of paper, fold it like that and then,
0:16:08 > 0:16:12get your scissors and cut out
0:16:12 > 0:16:14a triangle shape.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17There's a centre crease here, cut along the middle.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21And then, you end up with two pieces of paper.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25Put one at the top and one at the bottom like this.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30Everybody, let's start making things. That's a nice top fin.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Or is that the bottom? - That's the top one.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36That's the top one. Oh, that's a really good idea.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39There's just one thing missing.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41I wonder what it is?
0:16:41 > 0:16:45- Eyes!- Oh yes, our fish has to be able to see.- Yes!
0:16:45 > 0:16:49How about we use some of these bottle tops for eyes?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51You can pick different colours.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Put it on like that.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Hey, look! My fish can see now!
0:17:00 > 0:17:02There you go.
0:17:02 > 0:17:07- Wow, everyone, we've made a whole school of fish, haven't we?- Yes.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11- Now, where do fish live? - ALL: In the water!
0:17:11 > 0:17:12Yeah.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Wow, look at everybody's fishes!
0:17:18 > 0:17:24They look amazing! Look, you can see the reflections in the water.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28- It looks like they are swimming! - Look, there's my fish!
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Yeah!
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Wow!
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Look at my fish.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Curled in her basket, Skipper is dreaming.
0:17:51 > 0:17:56She's dreaming of deep sea exploring today.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Then, in a twinkle,
0:17:59 > 0:18:05and with a wag of her tail, she's off on adventures in lands far, far away.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30Oh no, where are we going?
0:18:30 > 0:18:32It looks cold and dark.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Look at all those shadows!
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Who might live here?
0:18:43 > 0:18:46What's that? Is it a snake?
0:18:46 > 0:18:50Barking bones, it's got lots of arms!
0:18:50 > 0:18:57One arm, two arms, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00What has eight arms and lives under the sea?
0:19:00 > 0:19:04Wow, Skipper's discovered a giant octopus!
0:19:15 > 0:19:19Imagine if I had lots of arms.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Think of all the things I could do.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Mm!
0:19:28 > 0:19:33Look at it walking with all those arms. Or are they legs?
0:19:33 > 0:19:37Oh, and look at all the suckers it's got for clinging on.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Where is it going now?
0:19:40 > 0:19:46Oh, it's trying to catch a crab for its tea. Watch out, crab!
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Goodness, how did it get in there?
0:19:52 > 0:19:57And how is it going to get out?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10That octopus is a very clever animal.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13It's squeezing out of that tiny hole.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24Barking bones, now it's changing colour.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29It's gone all white. Oh look, there's its eye.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33I think it's watching me.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36I wonder what it's thinking.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Oh, he's off again into the deep.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Bye-bye, Mr Octopus.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53The adventure is over.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58Skipper's back in her bed, wondering if eight legs are better instead.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01They'll never believe the things I have seen.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Did it really happen?
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Or was it a dream?
0:21:07 > 0:21:11Whoa, Skipper! I'm not sure I would like to meet a giant octopus.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Would you?
0:21:13 > 0:21:16It's nearly time for me to go now but before I do,
0:21:16 > 0:21:20there's time for just one thing. Do you know what it is?
0:21:21 > 0:21:25It's time for a song!
0:21:37 > 0:21:41# On the breeze, a seagull flying
0:21:41 > 0:21:45# In the sea, the children splashing
0:21:45 > 0:21:49# On my beach, my flip-flops flopping
0:21:49 > 0:21:53# Oh, what a lovely sunny day today
0:21:54 > 0:21:56# Ice-cream melting in the heat
0:21:56 > 0:21:58# Pebbles crunch beneath your feet
0:21:58 > 0:22:01# Shells are washed up by the tide Just behind the donkey rides
0:22:01 > 0:22:05# It feels good to get away
0:22:05 > 0:22:09# On a summer holiday-ay-ay
0:22:09 > 0:22:15# We'll say, ooh, eh-oh, ah-ha, so put out your hands
0:22:15 > 0:22:18# And stretch as high as you can reach
0:22:18 > 0:22:21# We'll say, ooh, eh-oh, ah-ha
0:22:21 > 0:22:24# We'll play in the sand all day
0:22:24 > 0:22:27# Having fun out on the beach
0:22:30 > 0:22:34# Eeny hats and red sunglasses
0:22:34 > 0:22:38# Hide and seek and big sandcastles
0:22:38 > 0:22:42# In the rock pool, we found treasures
0:22:42 > 0:22:46# Is it a fossil or a shell? Who can tell?
0:22:46 > 0:22:50# Toes that wiggle in the sand Fall down when you try to stand
0:22:50 > 0:22:54# Laughing as the waves roll in Tomorrow, do it all again

0:23:06 > 0:23:11# So put out your hands and stretch as high as you can reach
0:23:11 > 0:23:14# We'll say, ooh, eh-oh, ah-ha
