Our ECO Warriors will be working hard to keep our school and environment
clean and safe.
Some of the activities we will be doing this year are:-

½ termly litter picks around the school grounds.
Book sale to raise funds for the Green Flag Award
Making and selling bird feeders.
Switch off fortnight – This promotes the importance of saving energy.
Growing and planting seeds.
Developing our own vegetable patch.
Waste week – This promotes recycling.
The Big Tidy up at a local park.

The ECO Warriors meet every week on a Thursday In our meetings, we think of
ways to reduce our carbon footprint, keep our environment clean and safe, how
to recycle and most importantly how to involve the whole school in fun activities
that promotes us as an ECO friendly school.

Our Eco Warriors have a big challenge ahead of them this year. We have signed
up with ECO-Schools and we are working towards gaining the ‘Green Flag
Award’. For this, we will need YOUR help!

ECO COMMITTEE

We are currently in the process of making an ECO committee. The Eco-
Committee is the action team and the driving force behind the Eco-Schools
work. The ECO committee will meet once every half term to

Ensure that the whole school is aware of the Eco-Schools programme
Take the lead in carrying out the Environmental Review
Ensure that everyone in the school community is represented in the decision-

making process (as far as possible)

Provide a link between pupils, teachers, senior management team, governors

and the whole school community

Take the lead in delivering the Eco-Schools Action Plan

We are currently seeking a parent to join our committee. If this interests you,
or you would like more details. Please send an email to the school office for the
attention of Miss Riley for more information.
