Hyndland Community Litter Pick Sat 8th Dec
The Lane • It’s a place frequented by a lot of our school pupils, its where they “hang around” • But it turned into a massive rubbish bin…
Around Our Community • A lot of our friends, family & neighbours live in surrounding area. • They are being affected by the amount of rubbish that gets thrown on their streets.
Time For Change • The Eco-Committee led a Litter Pick Up last Dec 8th. • It was well attended by pupils, staff, parents and councillors who braved the bitter cold winters morning (and on a Saturday!)
Rubbish • There are several bins in and around our community and school. • There should be no excuse to drop litter. • If the bin is full, walk to the next one, its probably only 5 meters away. • OR keep your rubbish until you do find a bin.
Be Proud • This is your community. • You should take pride in it. • Do your best to keep it clean. • Don’t drop litter, put it in the bin!
Final thought… • If the litter problems do not continue to improve in and around our school, there will be no option other than to bring in the litter enforcers… • If you drop litter, they can fine you £50 and/or give you community service… • So…just bin it…we are not going to clean up after you…
Join the Eco group • Improve our school and local environment by; • Tackling problems with litter • Designing a ‘quiet area’ within the school grounds with planters, benches etc. • Promoting recycling by managing blue bins in all departments. • Developing ways to save energy and therefore money which could be used for greater resources in our classrooms. • Being involved in promoting a healthy lifestyle.
