S2 pupils teamed up with park rangers and volunteers from McDonalds on Friday 23 May to clean up Figgate Park. Some pupils pciked up litter, and some helped clear the flowerbeds in the eastern section of the park, collecting 110Kg of waste in total. The waste collected during the litter pick has been graphed by the Eco Team (see below).

Other pupils removed a whopping 450Kg of branches, litter and a shopping trolley from Figgate Burn. After all that hard work we refreshed with some healthy snacks provided by McDonalds and had a game of rounders. Well done to the boys’ team, who beat the girls. Until next year…
