Some of the pupils involved in the community litter pick in Croxley Green Schoolchildren in Croxley Green showed their support for the environment after taking part in a range of activities to mark Earth Day. All of the schools in the village took part in events linked to Earth Day; an annual event since 1970 demonstrating support for environmental protection. There was a community litter pick involving more than 100 people with equipment donated by Croxley Green Parish Council. Parish councillor Susan Hughes said the parish council also donated £100 to six schools to buy sustainability-related books. Cllr Hughes said she and her colleagues were really pleased to be asked to be involved in the project, which was organised with the help of head of humanities at Croxley Danes School, Helen Cox.
