The awards are to be presented to the schools with the highest percentage of pupils actively travelling to school that year. At Primary level each high school cluster area will have their own shield to compete for; while at secondary level the 9 High Schools will compete for the Secondary School Active Travel Champion Award.
The schools have already gathered the information required as part of the National School Travel Hands Up Survey. This takes place annually in September when every nursery, primary and secondary school pupil is surveyed on their travel mode to school and the results are collated for every authority in Scotland by Sustrans on behalf of the Scottish Government.
We would like to invite you (or a teacher/parent representative) and two Junior Road Safety Officers to attend the Inaugural Active School Travel Awards to allow us to present your award in person on Thursday 7 March.
The Biodiveristy team met with Georgia Connelly today to talk about re-adopting Eyemouth beach. According to a report, our beach is not clean enough.
Georgia, who works for St Abbs and Eyemouth Volunteer Marine Reserve, was enthuastic about working together.
The team agreed that we as a school should re-commit to cleaning our beach four times a year. The exact details of this will be sorted out soon.
Today we all got a Trash Pack figure. The remind us not to drop litter.
We are going to give one to every pupil in our school.
We want to have less litter in our playground. The Trash Pack figures should make people want to put litter in the bin.
We will be reading out a letter to our classes about litter.
