South Queensferry Primary pupils begin environmental project

Following the success of the first Junior Environmental Wardens scheme at Kirkliston Primary, a second project began at South Queensferry Primary in October.

The aim is to develop community pride in pupils and teach them the importance of environmental issues.

The primary 7 pupils are supervised at all times and provided with suitable clothing and equipment.

They are given a workbook which they are encouraged to work through after visits to the police station, fire station and the Environmental waste unit at Seafield. 

“The project at Kirkliston Primary was a great success,” said community safety officer Jim Henderson.

“We hope that the scheme at South Queensferry will be as successful.”
