Sustainability in Action

Changemakers

Changemakers James J, Leurice G, Bridie F, and Mary C have presented before the P&F requesting a face mask recycling box for our school community. These necessary but environmentally-unfriendly items are made of plastic and take 100s of years to break down. With thanks to our P&F, we will soon have a solution to recycle them into park benches and garden beds through Terracycle!

Love succulents?  Here is our Fete plug!  Our Stewardship Team is busily preparing to propagate succulents for the Year 1 booth. You can start planning your new succulent space in the backyard now!

 

Caretakers

Year 2 Yellow is now in charge of caring for our school grounds. Groups spend Friday afternoons tidying the playground, gardening, sorting recycling, and best of all: caring for the chickens!
