S1 Community Day
Written by Chloe Glasby and Julia Bartling , S1
On the 10 th of May , the whole of S1 went to different areas in Troon to litter pick . Classes were split up into small groups and were allocated a teacher and a place to litter pick . Our group went to Logan Drive sheltered housing complex to clean up .
We were also rewarded with snacks and a drink from the people who stayed there . Some groups went to different places including schools around Troon and Fullerton woods . Our group went to Greggs to get a snack before everyone walked to the beach . When we got to the beach , everyone got lunch at the kiosk and some people went in the sea while others were on the sand playing football or talking to their friends . When we were done at the beach , we got back into our groups and did a massive litter pick around the beach . Finally , we walked back to school together and spent the last 15 minutes talking to our friends to finish our last day of being in S1 .
