Members of the EcoTeam at St. John the Baptist Elementary School in Bolton joined students at other schools in a Peel-wide celebration of the water that’s available. They had planned to celebrate with the Great Gulp March 24, but that had to be delayed because it was a snow day. But there was still a lot of enthusiasm when they were finally able to take the Great Gulp Tuesday morning. As well, EcoTeam used the occasion to officially open their new water bottle refilling station. Teacher Betty de Groot said they put forth a proposal to the Town of Caledon, and were successful in getting a $2,000 grant from the Town’s Green School program.
