UNESCO Associated Schools Project



The Lockeport schools have been selected as Nova Scotia's first UNESCO Associated Schools Project Network member and are planning to celebrate tomorrow. (Tuesday, April 6th). Dale Eshelby the ICSP Coordinator for the Town of Lockeport says the process started as a spin-off of a revitalization event last October. She says a UNESCO representative is coming to the town on Tuesday and events are slated to get underway at 10:40 a.m. at Lockeport Regional High School. Celebrations include the unveiling of the ASPnet plaque and the Lockeport greenhouse project ribbon cutting ceremony. There will be a special Leatherback Turtle presentation and a display of student's science, heritage, and related projects in the Fire Hall following ceremonies in the school. The public is invited to attend.
