  1. Hi we’re from the Eco-Club!  Yesterday the Eco-Club visited the large and small lunchrooms to see how well Gledhill students are doing in bringing litter-less lunches.  We saw many students with litter-less lunches and they are entered in the draw for prizes.  Keep it up Gledhill, the Eco-Club will be back next week to check for more litter-less lunches.  Thanks!
