Eco-Schools

At Sexton’s Manor school we are very proud to be registered as an Eco School which recognises our commitment to developing strategies that sustain and enhance resources and the environment. This is a result of the hard work of our pupils, parents and staff in addressing environmental issues. We currently hold our 3rd Green Flag award.

Eco Committee meets every Friday lunchtime with Mrs Wright ( Eco Schools Coordinator). There are approximately 23 children representatives from Years 1 to 6. The children share ideas, complete an annual environmental audit, set environmental targets, run workshops using recycled crafts, run environmental campaigns across the school, hold assemblies to update our pupils and run competitions which help our school to work towards achieving our Eco Schools targets. We have Eco Monitors, voted for by the pupils. The Eco Monitors ensure each class is following their Energy Pledge and the Eco monitors checklist. More information about Eco Schools can be found on their website www.ecoschools.org.uk.     

 

    Projects include:

  • Walk to school initiative – Walking Bus
  • Reduce plastics waste.
  • Recycling batteries.
  • Suffolk Recycling Project.
  • TerraCycle – Crisp packet recycling scheme.
  • Big Garden Bird Watch.
  • Bury in Bloom Busy Green Fingers.
  • Fairtrade workshops.
  • Junior Road Safety Officers.
  • An 'Electricity Free Day' and energy saving initiatives.
  • Eco Monitors selected in each class to ensure everyone is recycling and saving energy.
  • Litter monitors for the playground.
  • Growing fruit and vegetables.
  • Forest Schools - HLTA trained and running weekly sessions.
  • Wildlife Garden – For habitat study.

We need the world to be greener
