Visit to West Lothian College – Sustainability week

On 6th March, some members of the Eco-Committee and senior pupils from the Looking After Our Environment group had a fantastic time on their visit to West Lothian College.

As part of  ‘Sustainability Week’ project, the group enjoyed taking part in a workshop on wind chime and mobile making, led by Lesley Hossack and supported by Childhood Practice students. They had a brilliant time in the wellbeing garden and left some wind chimes made with natural and recyclable materials, along with painted stones, to decorate the garden. They also visited the Eco House to see how it looked like.

We look forward to more opportunities like this in the future because it was a great experience for everyone involved.

We’re feeling a bit Christmassy!

The young people and staff of group 7 have definitely got the Christmas spirit.

Can you spot who’s who?

Merry Christmas from everyone in Group 7!
