EARTH HOUR INFORMATION

GOING GREEN!!

Our school is going green and OUR class leading the way! Beginning this week, or class will be in EcoTeams to help boost our recycling program, and begin our Green Bin organic recycling program. One of our EcoTeams will be in charge of collecting recycing materials, the other will be conducting review of lights/electricity usage in the school at recesses and lunchtimes. The EcoTeams will be wearing green t-shirt with logos designed by the winner of an in-class competition, as well as carrying a special green clipboard to record data. They will be easily spotted in our school!

We are asking all of you at home to participate in EARTH HOUR on Saturday (March 26th) at 8:30pm. Please power down your house for that one hour! It is fun and exciting to be part of something that is happening in over 100 countries around the world. Our school is registered in the school Earth Hour challenge for Friday. We will power down for the lunch hour. Check out the posted videos here for exciting information!
