REC Update – W10 – T1

Primary Student Environmental Awareness Day

On Friday of Week 9 I attended the Primary Student Environmental Awareness Day with three of the Year 6 leaders – Madi Mineeff, Lily Meizer and Lucas Pucillo. We had a wonderful day as we learned about how we can improve the sustainability of our school, discovered some great environmental initiatives that other schools are undertaking and made our own tote bags from an old shirt that otherwise would have ended up in land fill. It also came to our attention that we are going amazingly well in the space of environmental stewardship at St Patrick’s, especially considering our Nude Food initiative and the skills and knowledge our students gain from working and learning in the Living Classroom.

Many thanks to Madi, Lily and Lucas for a great day!

All the best,

Mr Sam Mattas
