Calis Beach

[hubblebubbles]

Some people will be delighted to know that a team of men were clearing the beach  on the main Calis seafront of all the big stones and mess yesterday and also cutting the grass verges .......   summers coming folks

[Bluwise]

Marvellous.  It's not the most inviting beach so every little helps.

In some places, the school children help to clean and tidy the beaches then they have a BBQ.  It's to make the children feel as though they are helping the environment.  It's to be hope that everyone strives to keep the places they visit, clean and tidy by taking their litter and rubbish away with them.

That's a really good idea, it instills early but important civic pride in children and is rewarding all round. Children love feeling they have achieved something valuable. Would schools be interested in this as an annual educational activity? A great fun day out and a visible result.

would that it worked, I witnessed the arrival of 2 dolmus to our small local beach in Sogut at the
beginning of the season a few years ago, all the children from our village school tumbled out and
were given a black sack they ran up and down for an hour collecting debris that had been dropped
 and washed ashore, later that day whilst having coffe at our local restaurant 2 of the children
from the clean up trip ran in for an ice lolly, both dropped the wrapper on the floor before running
of to play .......it may take a while!

That's great! Calis beach is lovely when its clean. A job needing done! Roll on summer!

Can you imagine British kids being given bin bags,then told to clean up their beach? Parents would be up in arms claiming it was child labour,and shouldn't be allowed to happen in this day and age

Can you imagine British kids being given bin bags,then told to clean up their beach?

Only as an alternative to a custodial sentence.

I don't agree, in the early 70s I used to got to Southport and Formby beach where a massive disco outfit called Radio Doom ran beach parties, your entrance ticket was to collect a bin bag full of rubbish

[Lotty]

I think it would encourage children and make it more exciting if there was a prize for the most rubbish collected. I've had my grandchildren doing things in the garden that helped, but to them it was just a game and they loved it.
