Eco Flag Success
On Friday the 27th of April Kirkshaws Primary School and Nursery Class were successful in gaining their 3rd Green Eco Flag. This is the result of a lot of hard work including litter initiatives, planting and recycling. Many thanks have to go to Mrs McBain and the Eco Team who worked tirelessly to plan and coordinate all of the school’s progress. We received our new Eco flag last week and showed it to everyone at assembly.
Well done everyone – we deserve to feel proud!
