Taking care of the Environment is a major part of life for students that attend George S. Henry Academy. For more than a decade we have been recognized as a Gold level Eco-school. Three times we have achieved the Platinum Eco-school level. Our student led Green Team oversees our schools recycling and composting programs, they help maintain our 1 256 square foot community garden, they help raise money for eco-causes, they develop and market organic lip balm, and they stage plays at Elementary schools to promote environmental awareness. In the 2015-2016 school year, George S. Henry Academy was one of 10 schools that won $25 000 in technology upgrades from Staples Canada!
The Green Team, along with Ms. Filicetti and Ms. Gal, are presented with the $25 000 prize from Staples.
