Silver Award - Gore Main School Envirogroup

On Tuesday the 10th of December the Gore Main School Envirogroup recieved a SILVER AWARD in the Enviroschools programme.  This has taken 4 years of hard work in and around Gore Main School.  The children have worked very hard to build up existing projects and understand why they are important for future sustainability.  Sustainable practices are becoming more embedded in life at school now, as the Enviro-kids led the way.  This is a wonderful achievement.  We look forward to continuing to build up our name in the community as a school that cares about the environment.  Our future focus is to get educational value out of our existing projects, such as scientific experiments on the nutritional value of worm juice or an irrigation system for our tunnel house.

Congratulations to the Gore Main School Envirogroup!  You deserve this success!
