In a study of our local area many of these subjects would be developed. Whatever the area of study pupils are encouraged to care about environmental issues through first hand observation and investigation.

 

Teachers are encouraged to take their pupils out of school (as much as possible) to study not only our immediate environment but also to compare other environments in relation to our own. In this way study is real and meaningful.  We aim to create a balanced programme over each school year. We have initiated a scheme for improving the school grounds and this is progressing well.

 

We are taking part in an Eco-School initiative. A three year plan is in place to build onto our existing good practise. In discussion with pupils, staff and parents we will enhance our school grounds, look at energy efficient measures, recycle materials and learn to take more care of our man made and natural environment.

 

We were awarded our Green Flag from the Eco Council in April 2006 and are working on our next green flag.
