Eco Schools

Being an ‘Eco School’ is an integrated and fundamental part of our school ethos.

We care greatly for our school environment and have worked together to make improvements for the benefit of the school community and wildlife.

We always remember that our actions have an impact both on a local and global scale.

I often need to do writing tasks, but it’s not my strong point. To get more info I use this cheap essay writing service. This school gives good knowledge, but studying here isn’t east and such services are very helpful.

The ECO Committee

What do we do?

• Collect different forms of waste for recycling
• Collect rain water for our pond and plants
• Plant, harvest and cook our produce
• Check our energy meter readings from our Solar Panels and monitor water and gas usage in school
• We have planned, designed and made an ECO Hub ‘Outdoor Classroom’
• Collect batteries, pens and ink cartridges for recycling
• Ensure that an ECO ethos is embedded in all we do

 

Each year Birches children participate in a litter pick. We take to the streets of Codsall collecting litter!
