PUPILS at St Michael's primary school in Port Glasgow got creative to celebrate the anniversary of eco-forefather John Muir's birthday.
Students from each class were asked to decorate a shell or rock depicting what they love about nature while others joined members of the Inverclyde Shed to plant spring onions, garlic and potatoes in a new gardening patch.
Teacher Caron Rose said: "Out in the garden you can see the kids' faces light up. It also makes them aware of environmental issues."
Students at the Port primary have also been participating in different activities around conservation.
The school previously collected and donated 1,069 discarded crisp packets to the Iron Man Survival Blankets project, where bags are moulded together into heat-conserving covers to help the homeless.
Caron added: "We're getting stuck in and will have the garden in full bloom by summer."
