We celebrated the last day of term by taking ""three for the sea""!
Every child was encouraged to collect 3 pieces of rubbish on their way to school and place them in the designated bins when they arrived at the gate.

On behalf of Port Phillip Bay, thank you to all of the students, brothers, sisters and parents that took part.
