Success for Selwyn in our Inaugural Entry in Enviro-Challenge

 

On Tuesday this week, four of our talented students, accompanied by staff member Brianne Kellner, participated in the Enviro-Challenge. The challenge was to improve and raise awareness of what can be done in school to improve the environment, by producing a carbon footprint and choosing a topic for a video and poster. Overall, Selwyn came 4th in Auckland! This was an amazing result. We were beaten only by three Decile 10 schools, which had all participated before, whereas it was our first time and we were a bit unsure about what to expect. This is a great start for the Environment Council, and next year they aim to take away the title!
