Eco- Committee first meeting

Leave a reply

It was a positive start to the session with our inaugural Eco-Committee meeting where we welcomed the new Eco-Rangers. 

To start the meeting, we revisited our outstanding achievement from last year: 

  •  the successful achievement of our fourth Eco-School Green Flag. A huge thank you to Tracey for providing the flagpole. 

Forth Eco-School Green Flag Award

  • We were also delighted to hear from Sarah (science teacher who left last year) about her incredible work in helping the planet. She has been planting thousands of trees in her new eco-friendly home and living a more sustainable life style.

Here is the minutes of our first Eco-Committee meeting.

Visit to West Lothian College – Sustainability week

Leave a reply

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.
