Our two Eco School reps have been very busy in the school. They have been working with other pupils to look at the following:
LITTER; Our school has never had a problem with litter but we are all much more aware of it and to help us we now have hippo bins.
WASTE: We are recycling our paper and separating our waste. We have had a workshop to talk about being 'Waste Aware'.
ENERGY: We now make sure our lights are turned off when we leave a room and only have on what we need.
WATER: Our taps in the toilets all turn off automatically now. This means no-one can accidentally leave them on!
TRANSPORT: We are starting to walk to school more often now and P6/7 are soon to take their cycling proficiency tests.
HEALTHY LIVING: This is huge with us now. Our healthy tuck shop is up and running and is so much better than before.
SCHOOL GROUNDS: We are discussing this one at the moment and hope to make this part of our Silver Award for Eco School status. |
