BOOSTING OUR ECO-FOCUS

This week at our Senior School Assembly we welcomed Hayley McLellan, Environmental Campaign Manager for the Two Oceans Aquarium, who addressed the girls and staff about the consequences of plastic destroying our environment.

She challenged us to make Herschel a “plastic bag FREE zone” and to no longer bring any plastic bags to school. Furthermore, she urged us to be more conscientious of recycling, and the school will be implementing various additional recycling initiatives to assist with this, including carton bins being placed in each classroom, and an Interhouse “Ecobrick” competition.

School Song

We are assembled here in love,
We are united, we care for one another.
The greatest lesson of all is the one
That teaches us to live together, together.

Refrain:
Everyone’s a spark and in the night
Together we make a light, a fire burning bright
Ad Dei Gloriam; Inkosi mayibongwe:
To the glory of our God: this is what we believe.

In times of trouble we support
Our fellows; we are taught to be there for our friends.
And all around us, there will be
That special unity, that binds us all together.

If we come back after many years,
We will think fondly of the things that we remember,
And the friends that we made then,
These will be friends forever, forever.

By Thandi Siebert, Head Girl 1993
