Sustainability in Action

After a term discussing how to be water wise and learning about the importance of preventing rubbish from reaching our oceans, Year 2 created an Action Plan to clean up the wetlands. Kendryck M thought of the idea after seeing a large amount of rubbish in our school drains. “We should do a big clean up so the waste doesn’t go out to our waterways,” he said.

Some other advice came from Year 2’s in regards to conservation:

“Put a short song on and if the song is done put the water off,” said Ian about taking showers.

“Put a bucket outside to catch rainwater,” said Amelia.

Will said, “Reuse your drink bottle water on your plants.”

“You never know the worth of water until the well runs dry.”
