Beach Clean for World Water Day

Our enviromentally conscious pupils rolled up their sleeves to look after our coastal habitats today. We were marking the occassion of World Water Day and we were participating in The Litter League Spring Clean 2024 – Keep Scotland Beautiful campaign too. Our pupils happily marched down to Agnew Park beach and gave the area a good spring clean. There was lots of plastic to be found and the children had much discussion on being responsible with our litter and waste as we know it can harm marine and land wildlife, as well as being unsightly.

We worked in partnership with our Community Safety Officers who arranged for the loan of litter picking equipment and also arranged for the uplift of the rubbish we collected.

The activity fits in with our Eco Schools Target for Litter and Waste.
