A tasty treat was on the cards for students at Hastings Christian School – courtesy of CrestClean’s Jay Gounder.
The youngsters in class B3 were the latest winners of the Cleanest Classroom Award. The competition is run at many of the 430 schools that are cleaned by CrestClean franchisees. The classroom that is kept the cleanest in the school is awarded a certificate and a prize at the end of each term.
Hastings Christian School Principal Gavin Clark says the competition is very popular with everyone.
“The kids look forward to finding out who is the winner of the award and Jay is always very encouraging. It’s always a lovely way to finish the term.”
“The event creates some friendly competition among the kids and it’s a real highlight for Jay to go along and hand out the prize to the winning classroom.”
Gavin says the competition gives students an incentive to take care of their surroundings. “It’s an acknowledgement that if they take the responsibility for their environment it can come with a reward.”
Tim O’Leary, CrestClean’s Hawke’s Bay Regional Manager, says Jay does an outstanding job of the cleaning and is well respected at the school.
