2018 to 2019

Trees for Learning with Nic Wort December 2018 Nic and Lynn from the Greenwood Comunity Forest, working with Trees for Learning helped us to plant over 150 trees/plants today. We worked together as a team to work towards planting one million trees by 2020. We would like to thank Nic and Lynn for their time today and hope our trees grown big and strong over the years.

Trees For Learning - December 2018

During the past few months, our Saint Francis Eco-Warriors have been working together to discuss how we can make the school environment better. We thought about a few main topics that we wanted to address and decided on plastic and growing.

Using her own initiative, Hannah made a poster about why we should reduce our plastic waste and this has been laminated to be displayed in each and every classroom. Thank you Hannah.

After some discussion we talked about why we wanted to grow more trees on the school grounds and helped Miss Duong to contact Trees for Learning where we could get trees for free. Nic came to plant some trees with each and every child in school and Father Paul came to bless them. We planted the trees around the school grounds, along the school field and we hope that they will grow nice and tall.

We will continue to be more eco-friendly next year and hope to address our action plan so that we can achieve our green flag status in 2019. Watch this green space!!!
