Cardross Primary pupils held a Raise the Flag Day! It was a joint celebration for the schools recently awarded Green Flag and it was also a fundraising event for Jeremiah, an African, child sponsored by the school.

The day started with an African assembly with all pupils singing rehearsed African songs. The P1 pupils performed an African dance. All pupils were dressed in bright African colours.

Pupils were split into their four house groups to participate in; a science, water filtration lesson, African cookery and food tasting, the making of African tribal masks and finally tie-dying.

After the inter-house lessons the school came together for a raise the flag assembly. Mrs Girling and The Eco Committee presented the assembly with Mrs White, a former Cardross Teacher, on hand to help Mrs Girling raise the green flag. Cardoss Primary are exceptionally proud of the global citizenship and ecological awareness of our pupils and the contribution they and their parents, have made in helping the school to gain this recognition.
