Students from the Eco Team and other students interested in sustainability and the environment had an amazing time at YHA Boggle Hole participating in the YHA’s Generation Green project. Students learnt about the importance of National Parks and the work that is involved in maintaining these areas. Students completed activities in team building, raft making and had a fantastic session about future ‘Green Careers’ to inspire our next generation of Green Leaders. Students surveyed rock pools studying the rich biodiversity of the Boggle Hole and helped the Park Authority maintain parts of the Cleveland Way. The emphasis of the residential trip was to inspire the next generation of green leaders. Students were praised for their maturity and dedication to the environment and sustainability and we as teachers are extremely proud of how they represented Sandhill View Academy!
