Global Citizenship
We have received our 6th flag.
It is about Global Citizenship.
Global means all over the world.
Citizenship means helping your neighbours.
We are all part of the world and we have to work together to make the world a better place.
The Green Schools Council
We have a council that meet every week.
Councillors are elected by their class.
They keep an eye on litter and recycling.
They award each class with a bin of the week award for recycling and reducing waste.
At the end of every 2 years the Green Schools Council gets to go to lunch with the Principal.
