Eco Club

Our Eco Club is supported by the Year 6 prefects.  It holds weekly meetings attended by representatives from Upper Reception to Year 6.   Children do activities, watch videos and learn about regional and national Eco-Campaigns. 

 

• Esme – Plastic pollution and cleaning our oceans

• Arthur – keeping rivers clean

• Paul – Using ‘ECOSIA’ as a search engine to help world tree planting
