Our local Community Safety Officer, Andrew Hay, visited the boys and girls this morning. As part of our ongoing Eco Schools work, we are working on our target of managing litter and waste. Andrew gave an informative and interactive talk to the children on the rights we can expect to have met and also the responsibilities we have for our community and how best we can look after it. We discussed the impact litter and dog fouling has on wildlife and the environment .
The children gave lots of suggestions on what we can do to improve the situation. We believe that everyone can do their part by not dropping litter and putting any litter in the bin when we find it. We have agreed to create litter awareness posters. These will be shared with our community council group and we hope to display these prominently in our area.
We are taking action!
