There will also be musical entertainment provided by the pupils in the school a Capella groups -the Muses and Musettes, from 4pm onwards.
This event will take place on Thursday 12th March from 3.30pm until 5.00pm in the Dining Hall at Oxford High School on Belbroughton Road
Said Jenny Dingwall, Sixth Form Green Prefect and organiser of the event:
We decided we wanted to organise a Green Fair ourselves because we want to raise awareness with our fellow pupils about how to be more environmentally friendly and to showcase what were already doing in school to our younger pupils and our parents. We are really excited that local Oxfordshire environmentally-friendly businesses are supporting us too.
