It was organised by Sam Hardcastle who said: ‘The exercise offers a variety of invaluable experience for our pupils in community work in the city and beyond, giving our children a greater understanding and awareness of issues.’
More than 40 pupils headed to the beach to spend the day cleaning Southsea seafront of litter.
They were given a talk on conservation afterwards.
There was also a lot of work carried out at Southsea Greenhouse.
