We had the privilege of hosting the Sustainability group from Geraldine High School yesterday. They recently won the Bob Eatt Foundation Award of Excellence for creating a positive environmental impact within their school community.
It acknowledges the changes their students are trying to make to better their environment. It included a rubbish audit, park clean-ups, beach clean-up, continual recycling that is being done, and the recycling themed week that was run last year.
We gave them a tour of the Eco Centre, Crows Nest, Nitrifying Trickle Filter System and talked about the Transfer Station. Corrie talked to them about challenges they could do at school and they played the waste sorting game.
It was lovely to have them … keep up the amazing mahi!
