The state of this stable…!
Julian Thomas2019-12-11T15:52:08+00:00I bet if Mary and Joseph had managed to get a room, the Inn would've cleared up before they arrived? They'll have to put up with a bit off a mess tonight. (Mike, where's your Hoover?)
We lost the debate (but that’s a good thing!)
Julian Thomas2022-08-18T13:27:07+01:00Following on from our previous post, the debate went really badly and we lost... but then we were arguing in the position of a Packaging Manager and actually, didn't believe in what we had to put forward! Backtrack... Our Eco Council went to the Met Office building today to take part in the first ever SAS Plastic Free Conference. SAS' [...]
Eco Council; debating and wishing we lose!
Julian Thomas2022-08-18T13:27:07+01:00Our Eco Council has been invited by Surfers Against Sewage to take part in a debate on Tuesday, one that's going to be extremely challenging... we're playing the part of a Packaging Manufacture and we're supporting the motion that the plastic free programme should be put on pause for another 20 years! This caused some confusion in our brief discussion [...]

Blue Peter… Comes to Georgeham!
Julian Thomas2019-07-16T23:39:58+01:00(Photo gallery at the bottom.) I still can't quite believe that Blue Peter came to the school yesterday! It all started a few years ago when the school became a 'Beach Rep' for the Surfers Against Sewage - the first and only School Rep with our School Council / Eco Council being the representatives. The charity soon developed a program [...]
St George’s Day
Julian Thomas2019-04-23T07:46:09+01:00First job of the day was to make tea, but the milk wasn't yet delivered... Second job of the day was to put string through the flagpole's pully, but my extended step-ladder isn't tall enough! Anyone care to bring a ladder to school and hold the bottom for me?
