Mossley C.E Primary SchoolSustainability
At Mossley CE Primary School, we believe that everyone, from our youngest learners to our oldest pupils, has the power to make a difference in caring for God’s creation and protecting our planet.
This page will showcase how our children are learning to live more sustainably. We’re focusing on how we use and manage energy across our school, finding ways to reduce waste, and making choices that help us care for our world.
Each year, our Eco Council (Eco-Warriors) will be leading exciting projects to encourage everyone to think about how we travel to school, how we can protect and enhance biodiversity in our school grounds, and how we can work with our local community to make positive environmental changes.
From energy-saving campaigns and recycling challenges to wildlife surveys and community clean-up events, we are learning together how small actions can make a big impact.
Join us as we grow, learn, and take meaningful steps towards a greener, more sustainable future for all.
Congratulations to our appointed Eco Warriors for the current academic year, who will take on their responsibilities within our Mossley school community, focusing on sustainability and exploring ways we can reduce our climate impact around school:
Some of our Eco-Warrior assemblies have included key topics:-
Fashion industry and the impact of fast fashion on our planet. The children shared key facts through an interactive game and were joined by The Big Clothes Movement, who explained more about recycling clothes. We explored what happens to clothes when they are thrown away and discussed positive alternatives, including reusing, donating and supporting our PTA clothes collections. 🌍
'Big Plastic Campaign' - Eco Warriors collected plastic food waste around the hall and shared facts about plastic waste. We introduced our new plastic waste bins in the hall and on the playground. We set all children a challenge to see how much plastic we collect over 1 week in school from snacks and lunch times. A week later, we shared the results and we were surprised! We discussed alternatives to plastic wrappers such as reusable pots, etc.
