The pupils headed out into the community today armed with bags and litter pickers to take part in the annual Spring Clean, ran by Keep Scotland Beautiful. Half of the school went into the village and the other half headed down to the beach, kindly supported by some parents who gave up their time to accompany us. Pupils found all sorts – from sweetie wrappers and plastic bottles, to rope and some glass. Some even managed a quick pit stop at the park to reward their efforts!

Our responsible citizens collected a grand total of 3 full binbags of rubbish from around the community to help make it look tidier. We entered our results into the Spring Clean League which all local schools are participating in as part of an inter-schools competition.  We are pleased to announce we achieved third place for the Scotland South region (D&G and Scottish Borders)!
