At Ysgol Acrefair we have an Eco-Council called the Green Team.
They have helped to create this page to tell you more about them and what they do.
Who are the Green Team?
There are children from each class on our Green Team. They were elected to represent the other children in their class. Their Team Leader is Miss Weaver.
Why do we have a Green Team?
We have a green team because we are an Eco School and we care about making sustainability an important part of school life and education.
As members of the Eco Council, we have been working hard to help look after our school and the environment. Every day we make sure the recycling bins are emptied so that paper and plastic are recycled properly. We have also been filling the hedgehog houses with hedgehog food, and we were really surprised by how much food the hedgehogs eat each week! To help everyone remember to recycle, we made colourful posters and put them up around the school. We also worked together to do a litter pick around the school grounds to make sure our playgrounds stay clean and safe for everyone. We are proud of the things we have done to help our school be more eco-friendly.
Our current targets for Eco are:
- To recycle paper.
- To recycle food waste.
- To look after/feed local wildlife.
- To reduce the electricity that is wasted in school.
