On March 25 we joined in the ‘Wear it bright' for Earth Hour. We marked our Earth Hour by switching off as much power as we could between 3.30 and 4.30 pm and all went outside to join in or watch our teams in the clan cross country race. |

Eco-club walk the path into school!
|
During lunchtime on Wednesday the 15 March the Year 7 & 8 members of the AHS Eco-club together with Mrs Taylor and Mrs Othen walked down to the gate using the new mowed path and then returned, posing for photographs on the way. It was a little reminiscent of the old style PE at Abbot's Hill, in the time of the Baird sisters, when physical education involved a run to the gate house and back again. Today, however, was a little more leisurely! |
