Eco Team Activity

The Orchard Eco Team decided they want to focus on tackling litter around our school and in our local community. To kick start this initiative they organised a litter pick as part of our termly cross site visit with the Eco Teams from Southwold and Hoxton Garden Primary Schools. Working together, the Eco Teams managed to fill a whole bag with litter they found hidden in bushes and under benches on the school site. Our Eco Team are keen to get out in to the community for their next litter pick in the Spring Term.
