Say hello to our new eco committee! So far this year we have completed our environmental review and are in the process of creating our action plan!

The eco committee have some amazing news…

 

We are now a GREEN FLAG ECO SCHOOL! We have worked very hard this year to attain the green flag and we can officially say that we have achieved it! Matt from Eco Schools Wales visited us on Friday and he said that he was very impressed with our school. We were so over the moon with the news that we had to call an emergency eco assembly to tell the whole school!

All the hard work doesn’t stop there though! We will continue to give our best this year to make our school a better place. We can’t wait for our next challenge!

 

Eco Committee

Well done to the children who met at Cymer Swimming Pool to walk to school together! The wet weather didn’t stop them and they had big smiles on their faces!

We are pleased to introduce our new eco committee! Ready to save the planet one small step at a time!

We all really enjoyed our ‘Go Green Day’ as all the children came to school dressed in green and completed lots of fun activities throughout the day!

Nursery were eco warriors and promised that they would take care of our beautiful environment! They made lovely hand print paintings.

Reception/Year 1 learnt all about climate change and they made a pledge to reduce their carbon footprint. They even put up new eco posters around their class!

Year 2/3/4 discussed how they could reduce their carbon footprint and completed fun activities.

Year 5/6 spoke about climate change and how they can help our environment. They made posters to make other people aware!

 

This week we went on an outdoor scavenger hunt in the glorious weather! We had a tick sheet to follow and we had to evidence what we found using iPads.

Seems as though it was the last day in eco club, we all had a lovely cup of hot chocolate in the sunshine.

This week we didn’t let the bad weather stop our fun! We decided to do an indoor scavenger hunt and we went around the school in groups trying to find all things green! It was super competitive as they had to do it within a time frame.

Week 2 was very quiet in Eco Club as Year 2/3/4 were on a trip so the year 5/6 pupils completed their recycling poster to take home.

During week 3 we were very excited to complete a litter pick! We really enjoyed making our school and surrounding area a cleaner and better place. We filled 2 bin bags!!!

What a great first week of Eco Club! We sorted items into their correct recycling bin and created a poster for the house to make everyone aware that they need to recycle!
