Our school has successfully kept the Eco Schools flag flying for more than 10 years, thanks to our knowledgeable and confident eco representatives.
We have close links with the sustainability team at Worcester University who have worked closely with our eco club to expand their experiences and skills.
Representatives are elected democratically at the beginning of every year for their place on the Eco Committee.
The children on the committee take significant responsibility for the organisation and running of the committee. They constantly reflect on the positives at our school and how we can make our school an even better Eco school. Responsibilities include monitoring the energy usage and recycling in each classroom, conducting whole school reviews, and leading assemblies to talk to the rest of the school about their findings.
