Eco Council

We are Eco Warriors!

Our Eco Committee is made up of members from Year 1 to Year 5.

The Eco-Council’s role in school focuses on helping us to be more aware of our impact on the environment.

We help the school to look after our world, for example, by using less energy and reducing and recycling waste.

We regularly meet with Mrs Bishop to discuss ideas about how to make our school more Eco friendly and plan our projects.

We have achieved the Bronze Eco Award and are now working towards achieving the Silver Award.

Reduce the plastic!

The Eco Council wrote to Cool Milk to ask if they would think about changing the supply of milk from the individual plastic milk cartons to a larger carton to reduce the plastic waste and be kinder to the enviroment.

Our letter worked! Well done Eco Council.

Litter Warriors

Today, the children from Eckington become ‘litter warriors’ in an anti-litter fight.
We had a visit from the Litter Warrior Karen. The Little Litter Warriors program is designed to highlight community litter pollution. The children learned first-hand about their local environment and the impact litter has on the wildlife, marine life, and their community areas.
We had fun collecting and talking rubbish!

We even found a 50 year old glass bottle in the church yard! Maybe we should take it to the antiques road show???
