TERRACE BAY, ON – The Grade 1/2 class of St. Martin School exhibited their environmental awareness, ensuring that they reduced their ecological footprint on our Earth and emerged as the winning class of the waste free lunch challenge.
The Grade 8 class created a grass roots project with the sole intent to inform students and families in an effort to reduce our ecological footprint on Earth. Through this project, the students created posters, an information sheet for parents, and held a bake sale to purchase recycling bins to promote the “Waste Free Lunch Challenge”. Their role was to inform parents and students alike that even small changes can make a difference on the impact we have on our earth.
The Grade 1/2 class created the least amount of waste during the challenge; therefore, received a pizza lunch to recognize their efforts.
