'God's Eco-Warriors' visited Mount Carmel Secondary School to take part in a special eco-day. A litter pick was followed by making special window decorations out of recycled plastics and making costumes out of recycled materials. The children had yet another amazing time at Mount Carmel and brought back lots of new initiatives we can use here in school!

 

Our eco-group was formed early in 2019 and coincided with us collecting eco-bricks for the eco-classroom. Our CAFOD representative Bob Turner is a regular visitor to school and talks through whole-school assemblies, class eco-lessons and eco-group meetings about how we can look after God's world. Here are just some of the things we have achieved in the last year...

Just some of the exciting initiatives 'God's Eco-Warriors' will be involved in this term.
