09-07-2010 | Graphites Resources win award for education outreach provision
Sue Coulson, Education Manager for Graphite Resources was recently honoured for the contribution she has made to raising awareness of sustainability and environmental issues in local schools. Sue, who has recently worked closely with Sara to develop the learning programme at Graphite Resources’ Derwenthaugh EcoParc site won the award at the Gateshead Council 2010 Environmental Awards. Sue had this to say about working with Sara:
“Working with Sara has been a refreshing and enjoyable experience. Sara is totally driven and very professional, however you cannot help becoming her friend by the end of the project! Sara took me back to basics when mapping the National Curriculum and really helped me to understand how we can link education into what we are doing on our site here at Derwenthaugh Eco Parc. The programmes she has put together are not only fun to deliver but really help the children understand about the processes we use here. Sara really got to know our business and the good thing is she doesn’t just write the programmes she assists in the early stages to make sure they run smoothly. Sara also introduced us to the excellent Splinter Design who produced videos of our staff for our web site.”
