Green Schools Project

 


Boys on our Green Schools Committee

 

"Green-Schools is a Europe Wide project designed to encourage and acknowledge whole-school action for the environment. Its aim is to move from environmental awareness in the curriculum to environmental action in the school and wider community."

At C.B.S. we’re all working together and hope to submit our application for a Green Flag at the end of the year. Teachers, Parents and Pupils have formed a committee, which oversees the implementation of the programme. 

We’ve made huge inroads in the reduction of waste going to landfill and have a "Litter Policy" which ensures the all fruit waste goes into compost bins (to be used later on the school garden) and paper, card and batteries are recycled. 

Our Green School Notice Board keeps everyone up to date on what’s going on. The next step we’ll take will be to look at the whole area of energy conservation. Environmental issues concern all of us and the boys are now getting a head start.
