Here is our school
Our school got a Green Flag earlier this year for good recycling. Now we are trying to earn our Energy Flag even though it might take a few years! ◦ Green Flag!!!
Our school was fitted with insulation a few weeks ago. We got it to keep the heat from escaping outside. Most of the classrooms and corridors got the new insulation.
Last year we had a Swap Shop. Everybody brought in a toy or game they didn’t use anymore and they got a token. Then they used the token to get something else. It was great because it taught everyone what recycling is!
Every class in our school has a bin for waste and another bin for recycling. We do a lot of recycling so we have boys in every class who empty the Recycling bin every few days.
Remember paper, cardboard and plastic bottles can all be recycled. We also have a Clothes Bank for recycling old clothes and Battery Banks to recycle batteries that are wasted!
Our school has a Green Committee made up of boys from second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth class. They think of new ideas about how to recycle!
Every class has 1 or 2 boys to make sure the lights are off when we go outside. That saves our school a lot of money paying for the electricity!
