Our Eco Team is dedicated to promoting sustainability and encouraging everyone to make small changes for a positive environmental impact. By raising awareness about climate issues and fostering a love for nature, the team inspires all children to take action.

Over the years, we’ve earned several Eco awards for our school’s contributions to environmental conservation. Some of our key initiatives include:

• Ch-Angels Project: Classes receive a recycled angel in exchange for pledging a small change to help the planet. These pledges include actions like turning off lights, reducing paper towel usage, walking or scooting to school, minimizing food waste, and avoiding single-use plastics.
• Climate Club: Led by Dr. Chris Jones from the Met Office, the Climate Club educates Year 5 and Year 6 students on the causes and consequences of climate change. Through engaging activities, including researching the climates of various countries and creating fun “Top Trumps” cards, students learn about the impact of climate change on a global scale.
• Promoting Random Acts of Wildness to encourage students to engage with nature, such as feeling the ground beneath their feet.
• Tackling littering issues, completing a litter audit and proposing practical solutions.
• Educating students on carbon footprints and the small actions we can take to reduce them.
• Celebrating a green Christmas, by using recycled materials for decorations, finding alternatives to wrapping paper, and reducing waste.
• Supporting biodiversity through the “Bees Knees” project, which raises awareness of the importance of bees and how to attract them to our gardens.

Through these activities, we aim to make a lasting impact on our children, helping them develop the knowledge and skills they need to care for our planet now and in the future.

These programs reflect our commitment to creating an inclusive, responsible, and compassionate community. Our goal is to empower children to take pride in their contributions, make informed decisions, and become active, caring citizens of the world.
