Our Eco Council is a group of enthusiastic pupils who are passionate about protecting the environment and making our school a greener place. Meeting regularly, the Eco Council shares ideas, takes action, and leads whole school initiatives to reduce waste, save energy and encourage sustainable choices.

Representing the voice of our pupils, the Eco Council works with staff and the wider community on projects such as reducing plastic use, improving recycling, promoting litter‑free playgrounds and raising awareness of environmental issues. Through their work, members develop leadership skills while helping our school take positive steps towards a more sustainable future.

Plastic Free Assembly

We were delighted to welcome Ruth Payne from Warwickshire County Council into school to deliver a whole school assembly all about plastic waste. The assembly was informative and engaging, helping pupils to understand what single‑use plastic is and the impact it has on the environment. Ruth shared lots of practical and achievable ideas for simple swaps we can all make to reduce our use of single‑use plastics in everyday life.

After the assembly, Ruth met with our Eco Council and set them a number of tasks to support them in leading the school’s efforts to reduce plastic waste. We are excited to see how their work will help us become a more environmentally friendly school.
