Kindness Awards
World Kindness Day 2008
The Eco group from last year and this year went to Ocean Terminal’s World Kindness Ceremony. We were told to meet outside Debenhams. It took place next to the Sky bar. In appearance was Ewen Hardie, he had walked from Edinburgh to London barefoot, with only 5 things: a machete, 2kgs of rice, tarpaulin, a pan and a matchbox. He relied on people’s kindness and by the time he got back he only had 1kg of rice left. Elizabeth Grubb the Lady Provice also attended the ceremony.
We were there because at our school we have organic uniforms. We also sell cotton bags and that morning at 9.15am we achieved our Green Flag.
