Our Eco Action Plan
LITTER
‘Find a bin and put it in!’
We want to take care of our environment and encourage people not to drop litter. Litter is a danger to wildlife and makes our community look untidy. We have created posters to encourage people to put litter in the bin. Each Friday we check our playground and the paths to monitor the litter. We report to the pupils at assemblies and make sure the litter is cleared away.
WASTE MINIMISATION
'Reduce, reuse, recycle.
Save energy, save our world.
Be a water saver not a waster.’
Using less resources will help the planet. We are recycling paper, plastic, metal, bags, shoes, books, clothes and other material. We are taking care not to waste paper and other resources in school. We make our own compost and leaf litter from organic materials we find in school. We switch off all electrical equipment whenever we can. We save water by making sure taps are turned off and collecting rainwater to use in the garden.
BIODIVERSITY
‘Look after the world, it’s for our future.’
We want to make our school environment a place where local wildlife can live happily. We are creating all sorts of animal homes: bird boxes, a minibeast hotel, planting wild flowers, log pile homes and we even looked after some salmon eggs, which hatched and were released into the local burn. Our Nursery class takes care of the birds in winter with their bird feeders.
