Many pupils at Cathkin High School take their responsibility for the environment very seriously. They take advantage of the opportunities in school to learn about and fully understand the issues surrounding man's impact on the environment. They develop a range of high level skills including skills of evaluation and communication. They use this knowledge and these skills to inform their own behaviour as it impacts on the environment, realising that small changes in our behaviour like recycling and conserving energy have a large collective impact. These young people have a very important role to play in influencing both their peers and the wider community to make environmental issues a top priority. They have made an excellent start with this blogathon - I'm very proud of them.
