Mount Carmel held an Eco Champions day with the theme of 'Our Power, Our Planet' inviting partner primary school Eco teams along to participate with Mount Carmel's Eco team in a range of activities.

Around 50 pupils from St. Oswald’s, Sacred Heart and St. Mary's Oswaldtwistle, Hippings, St. Mary's Clayton-le-Moors, Green Haworth, St. Peter's and Mount Carmel participated in ECO activities during the course of a fun-filled day.

The pupils made solar powered ovens and cooked smores and pizzas in them.

After a tasty lunch in the Twelve Star Diner the pupils went outside for a well deserved play.

In the afternoon Mr Blair talked about 'Earth Day' and tasked the pupils with considering ways to help the planet. Each school created a poster to take back to their schools to highlight many of the aspects discussed during the day with each school bravely standing on the stage to explain their poster statements to everyone else.

Thank you to Mr Blair and Mr Spencer for leading the day.
