The school has undertaken a pledge to become an Eco-friendly school. We are achieving this through a variety of ways including setting up a Creative Council, which runs like the school council but focuses on Environmental issues. Over the past two years the school has been awarded both its Bronze and subsequently Silver Eco Awards run by the National Eco Schools Award team. This year we are hoping to achieve the top award of Green Flag Status where a team of assessors spend the day with the children looking at the Eco Friendly measures we have put into place. Please also see our Eco Code. For a list of the projects run over the last 2 years please refer to the Impact Grid. Please also see the Creative Council agendas and minutes.
