Eco

20.03.19

Today the ECO Committee took part in a community litter pick. We were only out for 20 minutes and mananged to fill all 4 bags with litter!

We realised how much litter was in the bushes near the school and in the park area. We all shared some of the items that we collected, and all agreed that we will need to do this again soon – although hopefully we won’t mind as much litter!

Assembly 12.12.18
The Eco Committee gave a fabulous assembly today introducing their key areas to work on; School grounds, Litter and Biodiversity and their aims and plans.  This included their green thumb print challenge.  Can they catch you picking up litter to earn a green thumb print for your class on the Eco tree?
