Our Eco Committee meets to discuss important issues in our academy and the local area. Pupils from Year 3 - Year 5 are represented, with the children looking for ways to help the local environment and reduce the school's carbon footprint.Â
Meeting 1 - 24.09.26
The Eco Committe met and have set out their first actions for the year:
- Litter picking in the local park.Â
- Litter picking at Carbis Bay Beach.Â
- Visit to Steeple Woods to look at how much litter there is.Â
- Sourcing more bins for the school's outdoor areas.Â
- A 'no litter' poster competition.Â
- Light monitors in each class.Â
We have also booked a special workshop with our catering company Aspens, all about food waste and sustainability - we can't wait for this!
Meeting 2 - 21.10.26
Our Eco Committee met with the team from Aspens to talk about how we can make our lunch offer more sustainable! They learnt about food waste, recycling and hope to implement some new initiatives in the lunch hall to help us to be more sustainable. Well done team!
Event 1 - 4.11.26
Today the team ventured beyond the school grounds to the local park, where they took part in a litter pick. They could not believe how much litter they found in the bushes and trees! The children worked as a team to improve the environment in the park and it looks much better now. Well done to the whole team.
