Eco Schools

Eco Council 2023-2024

The Eco Council are passionate in raising awareness and making a difference.
Each year, they attend a Climate Conference with other schools in the borough to discuss important topics and how they will have an impact.
They have worked with Oxfam over the last few years; participating in COP26, 27 and 28 and supported teachers to deliver Earth Day lessons.

They have taken local action by planting trees in community parks and litter picking in the school grounds and surrounding areas. They were successful in helping the school to be awarded the ‘Green Flag Award’.

They have held stalls to raise awareness of ‘World Vegan Day’ and collaborated with Glastonbury Festival to produce an eco banner to be displayed at the famous music event.
