World Environment Day in the Junior School

The Junior School celebrated World Environment Day on Wednesday 5 June 2024, by having a lunch time ‘nude food’ lunch and a ‘Trashion Show’.

Each Monday lunchtime this year, the Year 5 Environmental leaders have been meeting with Year 11 and Year 12 Round Square Discovery Club Senior School students to organise this event. One of the Round Square IDEALS is Environmentalism. So the collaboration between Junior School and Senior School groups was very fitting.

It has been great to have the guidance of the Senior School students during this time. Their support has been very much appreciated.

It was a lot of fun to get together and watch the Year 5 leaders on each House create their outfit for the ‘Trashion Show’. Even more hilarious was the actual parading on the runway. The models were amazing at showing off their outfits.

The IDEALS society (Year 7- Year 12) joined us and judged the outfits. Mooramoora were judged as the best outfit, earning 100 points for their House.

Leawarra and Booralee had the least amount of rubbish in the garbage bags, each earning 100 points for their House.

We hope that girls in the Junior School have been able to think about our waste and how we can care for the environment by doing our part in reducing waste.
