Green Schools is a
new initiative from the Green Team to work directly with secondary schools carrying
out conservation projects in school grounds or adjacent green spaces. Projects
can form part of Healthy Living weeks, Outdoor Education programmes or suspended
timetables. We offer activities that meet the priorities of the Curriculum for
Excellence. Report of a Green Schools project ...Tuesday
25th of May I & my school went on a trip with the Green Team at Vogrie Park.
We did a game called through the rope hoop and it was very good fun. The leader
was called Kate and her dog was called Tim Tam, she was barking mad. We started
off by using loppers and saws to cut and saw bits of the tree down. Then every
body made a bonfire, before lunch Gill fell over, Harry got stuck in the bushes
and I got my foot stuck in the same pot hole that Gill fell over. After lunch
we did orienteering I was in the running team and we came first to get back to
the campfire to make chocolate bananas. Then we talked about what we hated and
liked about their day there and then we went to the park and then we went back
to school and then we all went home. THE END By Sappho Scott |
