SCHOOL COUNCIL LITTER PICK
The first school council event of this academic year was a great success. All the student councillors where out in force helping the local community alongside our friend Anne picking up litter from some local beauty spots; Longridge recreation ground including the childrens play area, the skate park and also Townley gardens.
Although it was a bit cold, blustery and surprisingly tidy, we all helped to collect a huge bin gab full of rubbish including sweet wrappers, crisp packets, empty bottles and cans. Anne very kindly lent us some litter pickers and along with some bin bags and the help of Molly the dog, we set to. Each of the councillors were motivated and keen with lots of local people commenting on what a tremendous job we were doing and also asked how they could get involved next time, so not only did we do a great job today but we have also inspired others to do their bit too and did a fantastic job of representing Hillside school and college. I am really proud of the pupils so well done to them and don’t forget to put your rubbish in the bin!
