This afternoon, the whole school headed outside into the Spring sunshine. The Eco-group’s recent meeting has discussed any litter issues and, as this month highlighted The Great British Clean-Up, we decided to do our bit for the community by doing a litter pick.<\/p>\n
Boys and girls worked together in small groups to go on the hunt for rubbish which really should have been put in a bin. We’re delighted to say the playground was reasonably litter-free, so we headed off into the village, towards the park, picking up any rubbish as we went.<\/p>\n
Some boys found a pair of gloves in the park which belonged to the Aldouran Wetland Watchers team, so we returned these to them. Soon our bin bags were rather full and so we headed back to school.<\/p>\n
All of the rubbish picked up has been disposed of in our bins at school. The children worked very well together; being careful not to pick up any glass by themselves. They showed themselves to be very Responsible Citizens.<\/p>\n
It was a\u00a0nice way to spend an\u00a0afternoon; making sure our wee village of Leswalt stays looking as lovely as it is!<\/p>\n\n\t\t
