Everyone had an exciting day on Monday, at our Eco Day. The children were invited to take part in a junk modelling competition. The quantity and quality of entries was outstanding, making judging by our Eco Group extremely challenging! Everyone who entered received a certificate and 20 house points. Our three winners got a certificate, 50 house points and a prize (an art set, sweeties and wild flower seeds). There will be a display about our day on the Eco Board, near the office soon.
THESE ARE OUR WINNING ENTRIES! CONGRATULATIONS!
The Eco Group provided the classes with seeds, pots and composts for every child. They sorted out the cans, bottles and batteries that everyone brought for recycling. After voting for junk model winners, they wrote certificates for everyone who participated.
