Have a "Green" Halloween
Halloween Tip -
Cloth or canvas bags, or even pillowcases, make terrific eco-friendly alternatives to paper or plastic bags!
Have a safe and spooky Halloween!
Put Your Best Foot Forward for Walking Wednesday
Walking is a 100% cheap, green, and clean way to travel to school. It is also a great way to start your day and get your heart pumping! Eco Warriors let's get the word out to your friends and classmates that walking is cool! Let's get the whole school walking next Wed. Nov 5th!

Let's Get Walking!
"We were made to walk, and for 99% of human existence, that's how we moved - by walking. Walking is healthy for the heart, mind and the soul."
- Dr. David Suzuki
Walking to school is fun, healthy and non-polluting! It's a great way to meet new friends!
