Climate Pledge

As members of our school community, we recognise our responsibility to protect and care for the planet.

We pledge to:

• Respect and value the natural world, understanding that every action we take can help or harm it.
• Reduce waste by reusing materials, recycling properly, and avoiding single-use plastics.
• Use energy and water wisely, switching off lights, taps, and devices when they are not needed.
• Travel responsibly, walking, cycling, or using public transport wherever possible.
• Care for wildlife and green spaces, both in our school and beyond.
• Continue learning about climate change and how we can help.
• Encourage others to join us in making positive choices for the environment.

We make this pledge as a school that believes in a sustainable, healthy future - for ourselves, for others, and for the generations to come.

Eco Work

At our school, we have been actively working on environmental projects for many years, first participating in the Green Flag Awards around 2015 and gradually expanding our eco initiatives. We have proudly received the Green Flag Award multiple times, recognising our ongoing commitment to sustainability.

Each year group focuses on specific environmental topics, although many activities overlap across the school. This year our focus areas are Healthy Living, Energy, and Litter.

Throughout the year, we take part in a variety of environmental campaigns, including the Sweet-Free Campaign, Cut Your Carbon Campaign, Big Walk and Wheel, Big Plastic Count, and the Big Battery Hunt. These initiatives show how small actions can make a big difference for our planet.

Our Eco Code reminds us how we can all help:

Be kind to nature, let it grow 🌳
Turn off the taps, don’t let water flow 🚿
Recycle and reuse, it’s the way ♻️
Walk or cycle every day 🚲
Keep our school tidy, clean and bright 🏫
Together we’ll make the planet right! 💚

Together, we are working to make our school and our world a greener, healthier place. 🌍
