Oxley Park Public School receives award for going green
Penrith City Council congratulates Oxley Park Public School on being recognised as a leader in sustainability.
Last week the school became the first in NSW to receive and raise its Green Flag – the top award given by the Eco Schools program, which is a branch of Keep Australia Beautiful and promotes environmental awareness through education.
Oxley Park Public has achieved great success over the course of its eco-journey spanning the past five years.
Council’s Sustainability Champion, Penrith Mayor Karen McKeown OAM, visited Oxley Park on Friday 30 April with Deputy Mayor Tricia Hitchen and Councillor Robin Cook for a first-hand look at the school’s raft of environmental initiatives.
