The Grade 9s went to the first annual Fresh Minds Symposium at the University of Victoria on Monday, November 4th and learned about various ways to create sustainable green projects. We explored renewable energy sources, the production cycle and ways to promote recycling, reusing and reducing in our communities. Students from all over the province attended and Brockton students were able to see many initiatives happening in schools across the province.

The Zero Food Waste Challenge
On October 20 to 24th the grade 4 and 5 students took the 'Zero Food Waste Challenge' at Keats Island and became the 11th school in 17 years to accomplish the goal.
They learned to take only what they need, eat what they take and to share with others. The students are challenging others to try the 'Zero Food Waste Challenge' at home.
