Greenwatch is our school conservation programme. We aim to protect our future by developing student awareness. In order to achieve this, we organise Clean-up Days when classes take turns to pick up rubbish. We also update this blog so that you know what we’re doing. Right now, we’re organising a new campaign. We’re selling products made from recycled materials at our ‘upcycling’ market on Saturday. So bring all your family!
