  • March Battery competition winners

    Tue 09 Apr 2024 Kirsty Palmer

    Congratulations to Miss Jones's class, Y2MJ. They have won the battery collection competition for March by collecting 194 batteries. Because of the Easter break they were only collecting for a couple of weeks so they did really well. Please keep supporting the Eco Committee and the school in this great scheme- the children are really behind it and love hearing who has won each month. April winners will be announced at the end of the month.

     

    Thank you from the Eco Committee

  • World Water Day Update

    Tue 02 Apr 2024 Kirsty Palmer

    World Water Day: March 22nd 2024
    Thank you to everyone who donated on World Water Day. On the last day of term the children looked amazing dressed in blue. They enjoyed an informative assembly lead by the Eco Committee about the importance of clean water, the water crisis around the world and the work of WaterAid and participated in a 1k sponsored walk. Thank you for your generous donations. We raised £183.46 for WaterAid. The children learnt that as little as £15 can buy a water supply  for a community and £50 can train a person to keep that waterpipe working- so your donations will really make a difference.

     

    Many thanks for your support.

    A huge thank you from myself and the Eco Committee. Because of your support we collected a whopping 554kg of unwanted clothes and accessories. All of this will go to help the people of Ukraine. By re-using clothes items we are helping our environment too. We also managed to raise £277 for the school.

    Thank you for your continuing support.

  • Eco News: World Water Day: March 22nd

    Sun 10 Mar 2024 Kirsty palmer

    World Water Day: March 22nd 2024
    We are marking World Water Day on 22nd March. It is a day that highlights the importance of clean water and raises awareness of the water crisis around the world.
    Every day millions of women and children walk for miles to get clean, safe water. On the last day of term, we are asking that the children wear something blue. With their classes they will be walking 1km . We are asking for a voluntary donation so we can raise money for WaterAid, a charity determined to make clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene normal for everyone, everywhere.

    Many thanks for your support.

    Mrs Palmer and the Eco Committee
