School Council

Summer term activities!

Our School Council is excited to be focusing on building the Planet Protectors’ Recycle Zone this term —a special area where everyone can help take care of our planet! The Recycle Zone will make it easier for pupils and staff to sort materials like paper, plastic, and cans so they can be reused instead of going to waste. The School Council will be working together to design the space, create bright signs, and continue to teach others how to recycle properly. By leading this project, we hope to make our school greener, cleaner, and a proud example of how small actions can make a big difference for our world.

Spring term activities!

The School Council has been very busy this term with lots of creative and eco-friendly projects! We loved painting an egg for the Alton Water Easter Egg Hunt which had been designed by one of our talented pupils from Year 4, adding our own colourful and imaginative handprints to celebrate spring. We also finished our glue sponge project, helping everyone use glue in a less wasteful way. Alongside this, we completed the roll-out of refillable glue sticks across the school to cut down on plastic waste. Our glue stick recycling box is now full and ready to be sent off for recycling—another important step in helping our school become even more environmentally friendly!

Autumn term activities!

The School Council has been working hard on new ways to care for our environment and support our community. This term, we introduced CD and DVD recycling and reminded everyone about bringing in used batteries for recycling too. We’re also encouraging classes to use our new refillable glue sticks and to remember to recycle old ones. Plus, we’ve been reminding everyone how to use our amazing glue sponges to help cut down on waste. Alongside our eco-projects, we chose our school charity for this year – Raise the Roof for All Saints. Our local church needs a new roof, and because it kindly hosts our Summer and Christmas Concerts, we want to give something back and help keep it safe for everyone to enjoy.
