To mark World Environment Day, on Thursday 5 June, the Eco Committee and the classroom Eco Monitors took part in a 'Plastic Clean Up'. Their action supporting World Environment Day 2025's call for collective action to tackle the problem of plastic pollution.
At lunchtime, pupils took a tour of the school to spot all the different plastics in use and then took part in a litter pick around the school grounds.
Eco Committee will be using the information they collected in their observations to discuss which single use plastics we use the most in school so we can identify areas to improve.
Across the school this week, classes have been busy with reflection activities on plastic pollution. The children have been coming up with their own ideas on what they can do to help with the problem including making a 'Plastic Pledge’, a promise of how they with help with the plastic problem.
Please do have a conversation with your children at home, get them to share their ideas and why not think about taking on the challenge to reduce your families use of plastic? Our Eco Committee and Eco-lead, Mrs Van Zyl, would love to hear about what you do.
