This event is organized by staff, students, friend and parents of the MGC Sustainability collective. We meet once a term to plan and discuss sustainability initiatives at MGC. We are always interested to have new members- you don’t need to be an expert, just have an interest. For more information, please contact Mr Andrew Vance, Sustainability Coordinator.
1st meeting of the Sustainability collective is Tuesday 11th Feb 6-7.30pm in Lyceum room 5. All welcome!
Human Powered Pedal Cinema 2020
MGC’s very own carbon neutral outdoor cinema experience is returning for our 10th anniversary!
MGC’s Human Powered Pedal Cinema is on the lookout for fabulous prize donations from businesses, families and friends to contribute to the raffle and to award our best ‘pedalers’. If your family knows of a business that might like to donate, please take a flyer from the Science Staffroom and have a chat with them. Lots of local businesses are keen to donate prizes to school fetes and the like. Contact Ms Hosking (samone_hosking@mgc.vic.edu.au) if you have any questions, information or prizes to drop off.
We also invite families to bring in chocolate and lolly donations for everyone’s favourite side show….. the CHOC TOSS! Grab some choccies and deliver them to Ms Hosking in the Science Staffroom. If you can’t come on the night this is a great way to help support this fantastic event. We encourage everyone to assess the packaging of the chocolate and lollies (and all your other packaging for that matter!). Is the packaging plastic free? There are lots of scoop and weigh choc and lolly stations in supermarkets and delis now.
We are looking forward to a fantastic night of sustainable education, activities and the classic movie ‘THE LORAX’. Don't forget that children 10 and under are free and there are plenty of family friendly sideshow attractions running from 5pm until the movie begins at 8.30pm!
