Holiday Homes for Worms

Our two wormeries, who eat up the good bits of our food waste from the canteen, need a holiday home for two months.  They need to find families who will feed them regularly and look in on them to see that they are enjoying their holiday.  Advice and instructions are available about what they like and don't like.  Anyone able to offer them a placement should speak to Stephen Hanna or Ellen McVea.

Carbon Challenge

Years 9 and 10 took part in the Carbon Challenge, revisiting the carbon footprint of the college and working out what they could do to reduce it. One group worked on drama activities to draw attention to the issues; another group worked on the maths behind the issues; a third group worked on the science. There will be follow up, and Shimna will appear on a Carbon Challenge website where we can post the measures we take and our progress. Lots of the work we have done already for our Green Flag will fit the bill.
