Rama Central's Green Team is open to students in Grades 1-8.  Team members are involved in various school-wide "greening" activities throughout the week (e.g. collecting recycling, compost and yard waste) and meet Wednesdays to learn about environmental issues and to produce posters and announcements that encourage others to make our school as environment-friendly as possible.  Our staff advisor is Mrs. Black.    

This year some of our projects include:

• instituting a "boomerang lunch program"

• participating in "Pitch-in Canada" waste reduction activities

• educating students about recycling

• encouraging energy and water conservation

• instituting a composting program

• promoting school-wide Earth Hour and  Earth Day activities

• conducting weekly school yard "trash patrols"

• tending to our school's butterfly garden

• becoming certified as an "ecoActive" School

• providing incentives for other students to participate

We are sharing information about our projects via:

• a "green tips" bulletin board

• hand-made and commercially-produced posters

• morning announcements

• the school newsletter
