Lanarkshire school pupils receive certificate for COP26 Challenge

A number of primary pupils have been awarded certificates after taking part in the Rotary Club of Cambuslang’s COP26 Challenge.

The organisation arranged the challenge for local primary schools during the autumn term.

Youngsters who took part were all in P7 and came from several schools in the town, with Newton Farm, Park View, St Bride’s, St Charles’ and West Coasts all represented.

The challenge was inspired by the COP26 conference held in Glasgow last year, with pupils asked to create prose, poetry and posters to show they care about the environment and the effects of global warming on the planet.

Certificates were awarded to winners from each school for their creative and outstanding work.

The certificates were presented in line with COVID protocols.

Alison Thomson from the club told Lanarkshire Live : “We would like to thank Rotarian Tony Neeson who arranged the competition and co-ordinated with the schools, the teachers who encouraged their pupils to take part and most of all the pupils for the excellent work they produced.”
