Eco Monitors at Pre-Prep

Fresh from being awarded the prestigious Distinction in the Eco-Schools Green Flag Campaign, our Pre-Prep team have been working towards attaining Plastic Free School Status.

Our youngest pupils have been busy being Eco Monitors this term, helping us to reduce our resource use such as water, heating, lighting and waste. Nursery have made a video to show how sort our waste into the correct recycling bins and how to be an Eco-Monitor. We have introduced our ‘Turn it off’ and recycling song in the Pre-Prep and are busy introducing this to the Prep.

Our Pre-Prep pupils have been working hard to gain Plastic Free School Status with litter picks too. They are choosing three plastic items to swap from home and from school. Plastic tape has been swapped with paper masking tape, which can easily be removed before the paper is recycled.

With our Year 5 pupils taking part in a beach clean next week and the FTS Beach Clean booked in for the 3rd of May, our Pre-Prep pupils would encourage you to get involved in your own litter pick or beach clean. Even small litter picks on a family walk (just three items each) can make a huge difference to our local environment.

Well done to all of our intrepid eco warriors; we look forward to sharing more from them soon.
