Today as part of our school's 'Climate action week' the @neatstreetsire St. David's subcommitee did a beach clean up in the South Beach Greystones. Every little bit helps towards keeping our environment clean and as free of waste as possible.

This week the St. Davids TY Green Schools committee along with Ms. Ward learnt about the importance of upcycling on a zoom with 'Let's Fix Fashion'.
They upcycled old materials and clothes in an effort to 'Fix Fast Fashion'.

Clean coasts are another one of our 4 initiatives this year.
Here are some ways you can contribute towards cleaner oceans and seas. It's especially important since we're a coastal town and want to keep our beautiful beaches clean.

Green schools would like to remind everyone to bring in batteries this week to put in the blue boxes in the base classes. This means these materials will be re used and not go to waste.

This week Green Schools will be focusing on raising awareness for the first of the 4 Initiatives. This is 'Fix Fast Fashion'.
Ways to reduce the effect of Fast Fashion are upcycling, reducing how much we buy & donating old clothes.
