this week i would like to have completed most of the work needed and published on my blog 

              hornby  high school field            

the people in our school are dropping their rubbish all over our school. There are more then 50 pieces of rubbish everywhere on the field and courts. sometimes its not only kids from our school its also people who come in the weekends. its also more work for our care takers to have to go and clean up after kids who dont want to pick up their rubbish.

the kids that go on the courts and field leave their rubbish all over the place on morning teas and lunches. its not nice to go to a school where theirs rubbish everywhere people then think our school is a bad place then wont send their kids to our school.

we are doing nothing to stop this and we need too. 

we need bins on the field at the back. also have the Eco worriers out more.
