having a whole week of awareness activities finishing on the Friday with a dress down day, where students can wear something green. Activities such as creating green eco songs in Music, having paperless lessons, etc were put forward.
There is a possibility that some of the students will be able to go along to the next planning meeting for the propsed new building outside. This will be a good opportunity for us to ask questions and speak to the builders. Both Ashley, Tehreem and Chloe were insterested in this. Chloe will speak to Mrs Watson to find out when the next meeting is.
Mrs Watson has also said that she would be happy to sit down with the Eco Council and discuss a Green policy for the school. In preparation for this both Anjali and Aysha both did some research on other schools policies and have drafted something to be discussed at the next meeting.
Imogen from the Year 7 Eco Busters came along to speak to Najda to see what they could do to help out. Najda has asked that they carry out the survey from the Eco Schools website.
Ambar, Hemash and Oliver all had a meeting with Mrs Rasimowicz again to finalise the details for the letter that is going out next term. The council decided today that we would now send this to Year 7 parents initially and then roll it out from there. oliver has made a start on drafting the letter.
Mrs Vickerman had spoken to the people from the Carbon Trust today and it looks like we will be having our Carbon survey early next term.
Finally we were supposed to go to the Year 9 assembly today but this has now been postponed to next term.
My daughter is having a 'Going green' day at her primary school today. She had to dress up in something green or something that demonstrated the going green theme. They have been looking at green issues all term which is great and she is now even reminding us to recycle etc.
