Glenmanor Eco Day of Action Friday 19 June 2015

Our Eco Committee have organised an eco day of action on Friday June 19th.  All classes will be involved in an eco activity to raise awareness of eco issues and looking after our school environment and beyond.  We look forward to posting photographs and sharing all of our great learning with you.

As part of our eco day, our hard working Parent Council will be running an Eco Shop. They have washed old items of school uniform and will be selling these very cheaply for parents who want to get organised for next session. Mrs Blair  will run the eco shop from   9am -11am in the school reception area. I have attached a price list below –
