Achievements so far:
We have achieved a bronze award!
What are we doing at the moment?
- Eco club meets every Thursday in R021 to discuss and find solutions to some of the environmental problems.
- The action team at eco-club have completed an environmental review. This looks at how we use energy and water and what we are doing with waste.
- The action team have made an action plan. This looks at what we should do as a school to make us more environmentally friendly.
What is the benefit to WGHS students?
We are trying to improve the school environment for everybody! A cleaner and more energy efficient school is a better school for all of us!
Do you think you can help?
Eco-club meets every Thursday in R021 (12:45-1:15), come along and see what we do and how you can help!
See Mr Skilton for more information.
We now have a range of new bins in school to help us reduce, reuse and recycle, these are:
Paper, plastic and cardboard bins that are accessible for students so that all of these waste products can be recycled. A textile recycling bank where the following can be placed: Clothes
Paired shoes (tied together by laces or elastic band)
Hats
Bags
Belts
Curtains
Bed linen
- Towel
It is sited by the sports hall, just make sure all the items are in a bag!
It’s encouraging to see so many pupils keen on helping our drive towards becoming one of the few ‘green flag’ schools in the country!
