Supporting Syria

 

Supporting Syria

Tomorrow is “Wear your Trainers” to school day. This is being held to raise awareness of the dreadful events happening in Syria. Any money raised is being sent off to the “Save the Children” charity. The Pastoral Council are keen to support their peers in identifying the rights and responsibilities of children and have recognised that in Syria children’s rights are not being received. They hope that the donation will help to deliver some of these rights to needy children.

Eco Visit

Last week, we had a very special Eco inspection to see if we could retain our 4th Green Flag. When the inspector arrived she went to the ICT suite to hear our presentation about all the work we do in St Mark’s. Different members from each pupil group told her about the range of Eco activities we are involved in.

Some of the Power Rangers then gave her a tour around the outside of the school, including the the garden.

The assessor then visited three classes in the school and the Fairtrade shop to hear what Eco work had  been going on. She seemed very impressed!

At the end of the day the inspector called the power rangers to say we had passed with flying colours and we were to keep up the good work!
