SETTING an example of how to be kind to the planet and adopt a charitable spirit, the deserving kids at St Mary's Early Learning Childcare Centre were awarded their third Eco Flag.

After working hard refurbishing the outdoor area, the children received a visit from Ziggy at Safer Scotland, a familiar face from their road safety campaign.

They have also been hard at work promoting the use of Fair Trade products as well as contributing to Mary's Meals, Robin House, Action for Children and West Dunbartonshire Community Foodshare.
