This week Atticus, Max, Charlene and Tracy have been lending a hand with the weeding in the school grounds. Over the summer there was a tremendous amount of growth which resulted in the weeds getting out of control.
Today we had a real help in the form of Mr Alec Ross. Mr Ross came armed with his strimmer and tackled “the mound” cutting back the grass and disposing of ragwort. He then completed the weeding and moved away all the rubbish and clutter which had gathered up at the pupil entrance.
Some of the senior boys popped outside and gave Mr Ross a hand for an hour or two – they were up and down the playground with wheelbarrows and were a real hardworking team – and they were even rewarded with a pay packet from Mr Ross for their assistance!
Mr Ross was at school from 9am until after 2pm – and was rewarded for all his hard work with a plate of mince an tatties from Barbara at lunch time to keep his energy up!
Great work! 
What a team indeed! Thanks Mr Ross – much appreciated.
Fabulous work everyone! What a hard working team. The paypacket sounds like a great incentive/reward! The children will really appreciate being able to use the mound etc as part of their playspace again.
