Thanks to everyone that got involved in the Clean Up Australia Day activities on Friday March 5th. It was great to see the enthusiasm with which the students sought out the rubbish around our school and community. Mr Hillard’s Year 6/7 class walked to Unley Oval for a cleanup and searched the streets for refuse, both there and back. Other classes split up and got into every nook and cranny of the school hunting for rubbish. Although the school yard was already looking pretty clean on Friday morning, we still managed to get quite a haul. Volunteers from the SRC executive helped sort this on Friday afternoon and then counted up each of the different rubbish categories.  See below for the results from the audit.
