Green Flag Application

We have submitted our application for our 5th Green Flag Award. Fingers are crossed! 

Reverse Advent

The Eco Committee has been quite amazed by the terrific response to the reverse advent appeal. Toys, food and donations of toiletries have been pouring in and in just over a week a trolley has been filled with donations and boxes of more donations have been added. A collection by the food bank will be arranged and it is hoped we can raise enough items to send another trolley full or more to this deserving cause. 

Thank you so much to everyone who had contributed so far. Your donations are greatly appreciated! 

Kirkwood Avenue Litter Pick

The John Muir Group Cartier out a litter pick as they headed to the canal today. They collected an impressive 7kg of rubbish and were thanked by residents of the street who came to speak to the children. Most of the litter was plastic packaging and tin cans. The children noticed the how the appearance of the street improved after they had cleared one pavement and this spurred them on to tackle the other pavement on their return to school. 

At the canal they scattered some bird seed at the spot where the otter was caught by their camera trap and they also enjoyed skimming ice on the frozen canal.
