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.
