Greenspiration Day!!

Greenspiration Day is a student-led initiative that focuses on the social, economic and environmental aspects of our actions, as well as recognizing the inter-relationship between these aspects. The goal of our event is to engage environmental consciousness and encourage individual contributions to support our initiative. The long term hope and goal is to create perpetual and intrinsic involvement of our staff and students in our green initiative.

Update (June 30, 2017)

Nelson McIntyre's Green Team has been hard at work this past year promoting our initiative to go green! One of our ways to educate others on ways to go green is with our 'Greenspiration' bulletin board. We share such things as eco-friendly tips and current news with staff and students, as well as visitors in our school!
