2019 Lake Macquarie School Environment Awards Winners

On Wednesday 23 October, Mrs Brewer and Mrs Dorahy along with Eden Warham and Clancy McIntyre attended the School Environment Awards at Lake Macquarie City Council Chambers. We were invited to attend after completing a schools sustainability survey earlier in the year. This survey asked questions about how we manage water and energy consumption, reduce waste, improve our school grounds and involve the school community in sustainable transport initiatives.

As a result Garden Suburb Public School was the recipient of the top award, being named overall winner in the Primary School category for our sustainability efforts. Thanks go to Lake Macquarie City Council and to Hunter Resource Recovery for sponsoring this award and the $500 prize.
