Start of the School Year


Here are some of the things going on at St. Rita Catholic School with our Eco-Squad:

It has been six weeks that have gone by. We have the book exchange and have lots of new helpers that have joined the Eco-Squad.

We are still thinking of more great ideas for our school and out Eco-Squad.

Some of these ideas that we are thinking about are:
  • take old clothes and turn them into new things. Have a Fashion Show and present to the school
  • have a contest to turn the garbage can upside down and see how long a class can keep it empty
  • connecting with other Eco-Squads on-line to try and come up with great ideas in schools
  • having an Earth Hour every week

These are some of the ideas that we have for the year.

Why do we do this stuff:
  • we want to help the planet
  • we want to keep our school nice, clean and safe
  • we get to work with our friends
  • we are kelping the school


If you want to connect with us, let us know so we can work together and brainstorm.

Below are some pictures of things our Eco-Squad is doing this year.
