We are currently working really well on achieving our fourth Green Schools flag which is on the theme of Travel which is a two year programme. We aim to use more sustainable ways of travelling to school. Our aim is to increase carpooling from 30% to 50% and increase walking/park ‘n’ stride from 8% to 15%.
We are keeping scores of the people who use sustainable ways of travelling to school with carpooling and travelling by bus getting 1 point and walking, parking ‘n’ striding and cycling getting 2 points. The ‘Golden Boot’ and a prize will go to the class with the most points over a week. The first class to win were 2nd class. Congratulations to them. Keep up the great work in all the classes!
REMEMBER:
1) The Rocks and Silver Birches are our park ‘n’ stride locations.
2) The top of the Ballagh Road at Lisduff has been designated as a place to cycle to/from school.
3) We have a battery recycling facility here at school so send in all your used batteries!
