STEP 1: Need a review, identify the problem areas, rubbish, bins, teachers' bins, photocopying

Note what we are good at


Review: monitor the bins in the class rooms, do up a questionnaire
Action: Monitor the bins for two weeks,check the litter in the classrooms everyday, after breaktime check the litter in the yard.


Lights: Monitor the lights, electrical equipment and water usage in own classes.

Sumayya, Aya, NAila, Noor will devise a checklist


We will check classes to see what is reusable

Moses and Hassin will check the displays

Monitor the notes home to see if it would be better to use a web based system
