As a school we do lots of things to make sure we are looking after our planet.
We turn off the taps to save water.
We put our fruit skins and peel in the small compost bins in our class to reduce waste.
We ask everyone to turn off the lights when they are not in the room to save electricity.
We put our fruit skins and peel into the larger compost bins and then use the soil in our school planters.
We ask everyone to close the doors to keep the heat inside.
We keep our pond and nature area tidy and encourage local wildlife in to use it.
