Students embark on cleanup challenge

Students across North Vancouver School District are taking part in a cleanup challenge just in time for Earth Day.

Led by Windsor Secondary’s Green Team, environmental clubs across the school district are being invited to pick up and track pieces of litter they clean up using an app from now until May 31.

All secondary students and their households are invited to take part in achieving the cleanup goal of 6,000 pieces of litter – with top contributors set to receive a prize.

Those interested are invited to download the Litterati app and use the code “SD44CLEAN” to participate, according to the school district.

A kickoff cleanup event for Windsor students is set for today.
