# Year 6 Helping in the Community

  ![Image of Year 6 Helping in the Community](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/blog/DSCN5033.JPG)  8 February 2017   [Rachel Baker](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/author/rbaker)   [Outdoor Learning](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/category/outdoor-learning)

As part of the Chorley Civic Pride Award, we are helping in our community. Today Elm Class went out with some parents and cleaned up our local community by litter picking. We discussed the importance of our community and why it is vital to play our part. We then put this into action by starting a whole school litter picking collection. Year 6 collected 11kg of rubbish! Wow! We were certainly shocked by how much we found. Keep Chorley Clean!
