WASTE-FREE WEDNESDAY PRIZE DRAW!

This week, members of the Envirogroup randomly chose 1 lucky class in the school to be in the Waste-free Wednesday  prize draw!

Room 24 was chosen and we went to find the best waste-free lunchbox from that class!
There were so many excellent waste-free lunch-boxes in Room 24 that we had to have another prize draw to find the winner!

Thank you for being such good lunchbox role models, Room 24!
 
Johnny, Felix, Charlie, Anya, Helena, Maddie, Vanessa, Talan, Liam, Reilly, Leon, Lewys and Liv all had wrapper-free lunchboxes!!
 
It was Vanessa’s lucky day and she won the prize!
 


Thank you to the Ellis family for donating the MYMOJO prize!

Rubbish Around School!

We have a problem. People have been leaving rubbish around our school instead of putting it in the bins or lunch boxes.

Yesterday we found 507 pieces of rubbish after lunch on the fields and the bleachers!


Rubbish does not go away and it can take years to disappear! Don't drop your rubbish around or our school could look like this!!!


Remember our school values and RESPECT our property and our environment!
