Our Litter Pick Rota 2022-23 

We are dedicated to making sure that no litter ends up in our water ways, harming wildlife. To help, we have set up a litter picking rota so all of the Eco Councillors get a chance to make sure our school grounds are kept neat and tidy.

Recycled Bird Feeders

To try and encourage birds into the school grounds, and to help support them through the colder months, the Eco Councillors decided to make some bird feeders using recycled plastic bottles.

Wildlife Watch

Are you spending more time in your garden, if you are lucky enough to have one? Or taking full advantage of your daily walks? 

Why not take this time to take a bit more notice of the natural world by taking part in our Wildlife Watch?

All you need to do is take a few moments to have a look around you at the creepy crawlies and other creatures that share our world. Then, use the identification sheets from the Wildlife Trust to help you find out what you have seen. 

You could then take a photo or a video, or why not get really creative and draw a picture or make a model of what you have seen and I will share your work on this page. That way we can get connected and see what each other has been getting up to.  

You never know what you might find!

This year each class held open elections to decide who would be part of our new Eco Council. Competition was fierce with each pupil producing an exceptional presentation in a bid a to convince classmates that they were the right person for the job. Some even drafted in help from family members to help make their campaign extra special.

This year, your Eco Councillors are:

During an initial planning meeting, pupils put forward suggestions about what issues matter most to them. We also used the Four Purposes to guide our choices about what we could focus on this year.

Our 2019-20 Goals

• To reduce litter on the yard and waste in classrooms
