We have quite a few events coming up in the next month, but first an evaluation of yesterday’s Car Free/Car Share Day. Although a lot of staff members left their cars at home, we still have a long way to go to have more staff actively participating in this event.

Our next Committee meeting will be on Wednesday 6 February, in Miss Bigg’s room at 1pm. If you are a parents or a community member and are interested in getting involved with the Eco Committee, which decides on and implements most of our Eco activities at PHS, speak to Miss Bigg on 01316692324.

All members of the Portobello community and friends are cordially invited to a free showing of the food documentary PLANEAT on 20 February, 7pm at Portobello High School. A copy of PLANEAT has been provided by Eco-Schools Scotland as part of their Food On Film tour. The film tackles the links between our diet and health, and also between the food industry and climate change. This is a hugely relevant issue all over the world and we’re proud to be able to offer this showing to the local community. Please reply to this post if you’re keen to come along to give the Eco Team an idea of the numbers we should expect.

Looking forward to seeng you there!
