We are delighted to have received a donation of equipment from @carnoustiegolf green-keeping team to get our school bee-keeping aspirations up and running. Hopefully the breakfast club will have its own supply of honey next year! @LfSAngus @AngusCouncil

A big thank you to Colin from Carnoustie Rugby Club for running our weekly training sessions every Tuesday.

Active Schools are running a very popular football class every Friday after school.

After winning the small school football event in Monifieth the team celebrated in style back at school!

The eco-committee planted our vegetable seeds today as we’re into spring!

The eco-committee has started preparing our raised beds for planting vegetables again this spring. @AngusCouncil

Colin from Carnoustie Rugby Club continued with our training sessions outside yesterday - it was great to get back into the field.

Our eco-council erected a bird table as part of our Green Flag and Learning for Sustainability goals. We also reduced food waste by using left-over bread from lunchtime to fill the trays. @LfSAngus @AngusCouncil

The Eco-Committee participated in the Big Schools' Birdwatch 2025 by recording all the species observed in the school grounds this afternoon and submitting our results to the RSPB @RSPBScotland @LfSAngus

Whilst the eco committee chatted about the UN sustainability goals and how they link to our focus areas - litter; climate action; school grounds and food… we sampled some delicious locally made ‘Phlump’ marshmallows that definitely helped get our thinking caps on😉 #yum
