Rhu Primary School have been working towards their 3rd green flag for the past two years.\u00a0 Success came on Thursday 26th January when they achieved their goal.\u00a0 Pupils and staff were delighted and teachers shed tears of joy.
\nThe Eco Committee held many meetings making sure the required criteria would be met, which was no easy feat. The challenge involved pupils, parents and the wider community.\u00a0 Mrs. Mackay, Principal Teacher and Eco Coordinator said,
\n\u201cIt\u2019s made me aware of being more eco friendly.\u201d\u00a0 This seems to be felt by the pupils too.<\/p>\n

Paula Love, Assessment Officer for the West of Scotland assessed the school to ensure we had met the required criteria and was able to see the hard work put in by all.\u00a0 This was Rhu\u2019s opportunity to show our Eco-School\u2019s work and impress her.\u00a0 As well as the committee members, Ms Love met some of the pupils and teachers who were involved in Eco-Schools\u2019 activities.\u00a0 Looking at relevant environmental work the school was doing, looking around the school grounds for evidence.\u00a0 Ms. Love said, \u201cThe best thing is being inspired by all the fantastic things that young people are doing to sustain our world\u2019. We were very happy to hear Ms. Love say that and we felt proud it was coming from a professional.<\/p>\n

Mrs.Tetlow, Principal Teacher, Eco Assistant, added, \u201cSimple things make a big difference.\u201d
\n\u201cI am absolutely delighted that the commitment and enthusiasm have culminated in our third green flag,\u201d said Miss Milne, Head Teacher.<\/p>\n
