they've been doing:
     Growing vegetables
      Fairfield School pupils started their own vegetable garden. Both children and teachers plant and water
the seeds (种子), then I hey pick the vegetables, which are used in school meals. Now they can all enjoy
healthy food at lunchtime. "School dinners are tastier than ever before!" says one pupil.
      Recycling
     The Fairfield pupils don't just bring their books to school-they bring their rubbish too! There are recycling
bins (回收箱) in the playground for cans, plastic bottles, batteries and paper. The teachers give a prize every
month to the pupil who's tried the hardest to recycle.
     Planting trees "This used to be one of the least beautiful areas of the city with no green areas, says the head
