Haverfordwest pupils celebrate cultures

Pupils at Mary Immaculate School in Haverfordwest have been celebrating different cultures as part of their work for the bronze Sustainable Schools Award.
The award was presented by Councillor Huw George, Cabinet Member for Children, Young People, Learning and the Welsh Language, at a special assembly.
Waste and litter minimisation, global citizenship and healthy living have been on the agenda at the school during the past year.
Pupils have enjoyed finding out about people from other countries, tasting food, learning about Fair Trade and also taking part in the popular Chinese club.
Picnic benches made from recycled plastic have been bought for the school grounds and pupils were involved in the 'Haverfordwest goes Plastic Bag Free' scheme.
"We were impressed with the way the school has been celebrating cultures across the world" said Janie Pridham, Sustainable Schools Project Officer, "as well as making their school more sustainable."
The Pembrokeshire Sustainable Schools Award recognises efforts to improve the local environment and quality of life now without damaging the planet for future generations.
