THE INTREPID LITTLE SQUIRREL

Some of the participants waiting

for the speeches on the day.
As we can see Marion of Divers in
Paradise was there in full force to
support the low carbon school
project.

The time and effort taken to make the hats and paper bowls shows the interest and time
taken to produce top quality recyclable items

Children and staff of paradise resort, having

their games and quiz about the environment.
Its been a great result from all the schools.
We just need to focus on the right people and
from there we can achieve great things in elss
than 20 years, they are the future for us.
Love those hats!
