We have been named as a finalist in the ResourceSmart Schools Awards!
The ResouceSmart Schools Awards celebrate the legendary efforts and impacts made by schools in sustainability. Our school has been chosen as a finalist in the Student Action Team of the Year for our Eco Club.
We have been invited to attend the awards ceremony at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on the 4 June along with the other finalists. The theme this year is Legendary legacies – what will you leave behind?
Speaking of legendary legacies, since 2008, 1,600 ResourceSmart Schools (including us!) have work together to:
· save more than $60 million on bills
· plant more than 5.2 million trees
· save more than 74,000 tonnes CO2e greenhouse gas emissions
· divert 168,000 cubic metres of waste from landfill
· save 1.8 million kilolitres of water.
The ResourceSmart Schools Awards are a joyful and affirming celebration of schools and students and their sustainability triumphs. The awards are the state’s largest sustainability celebration for primary and secondary school students, teachers and school volunteers taking remarkable sustainability action. We are proud to be recognised among the schools doing sustainability work that benefits students, the planet and the wider community alike.
