A green career can be any job, role or occupation that contributes to preserving or restoring the environment and our planet. It can be in any industry, not just those seen as ‘green’. Green skills can be regarded as skills, attitudes, values and attributes, supported by knowledge to adapt services, processes and procedures to support climate change. Change is inevitable.
Each week, form tutors award pupils in their classes with ‘HMS Way Awards’. The awards recognise pupils who shine each week and who bring our HMS values – Respect Engage Aspire – to life. Well done to this week’s winners – we are very proud of you all! (Year 8 photo to follow!) #Respect #Engage #Aspire
