STAFF and students of Noosa Christian College (NCC) tackled Clean Up Australia Day on Friday afternoon, helping keep Cooroy beautiful.
On Friday afternoon, the groups set off with gloves and bags to clean up their Cooroy campus, the surrounding streets and Cooroy township.
Their clean-up sites included Cooroy-Belli Creek Road, Cooroy tennis club, Cooroy Skate Park and library, plus the rear of the IGA and the area surrounding the ambulance station.
Primary classes were paired with secondary classes as part of a buddy system to make sure everyone was safe during the clean-up.
Every student worked hard to collect as much rubbish as possible, which served as a great reminder to care for the environment and always put rubbish in a bin.
The group clean-up was also a great way to end the Random Acts of Kindness week, celebrated at NCC last week.
