We are delighted to announce that our school has once again been awarded the prestigious Eco-Schools Green Flag. This achievement recognises the hard work, commitment and enthusiasm of our pupils, staff and wider school community in promoting environmental awareness and sustainable practices.
Renewing our Green Flag reflects our continued dedication to caring for our environment and living out our school values of respect, responsibility, kindness and community . Through the work of our Eco Council, outdoor learning initiatives and environmental projects, our pupils are developing the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to make a positive difference in their community and beyond.
We are incredibly proud of this achievement and thank everyone who has contributed to making our school a greener, more sustainable place to learn and grow
