🌍 Growing Green Together: Our Commitment to the Environment 🌱
At Brede Primary School, we’re passionate about looking after our planet — and we want to inspire our children to do the same! Being a Green School isn’t just about recycling bins and watering plants (though we do love those too!). It’s a whole-school adventure to learn, care, and act for a healthier, happier Earth.
What Does Being a Green School Mean?
Being green means we’re serious about:
- Protecting the environment
- Learning how to live sustainably
- Teaching children how their actions impact the world around them
- Making eco-friendly choices every day
From growing our own vegetables to switching off lights when we don’t need them, we’re all about making small changes that add up to a big difference!
How We Bring Green Education to Life 🌿
Our eco-friendly journey is fun, hands-on, and full of discoveries. Here’s how we do it:
- Gardening: Kids get their hands dirty growing veggies and flowers – and learning about pollinators like bees and butterflies.
- Eco Projects: From building bird feeders to creating compost heaps, our projects teach care and responsibility for living things.
- Recycling and Waste Reduction: We’re champions of recycling and reducing waste around school – every little bit counts!
- Energy Savers: We’re learning to save energy by switching off devices and using natural light.
- Outdoor Learning: Exploring nature helps us appreciate the environment and understand why it needs protecting.
Why It Matters
Our planet is facing big challenges, and we want our children to grow up with the skills and passion to make a positive difference. By encouraging respect for nature and sustainable living, we’re helping children become confident, responsible citizens who care about their world.
