Irby Primary School ::: Eco Schools ****

Welcome to our Eco Schools Page!

We have been working very hard at Irby Primary to make our school more eco-friendly! We all want to do our part to help the environment!

We are very lucky to have such beautiful school grounds and we try our best to look after them. Here we are having a Big Plant and a Big Tidy Up!!

We were all very busy working in the Wildflower Garden!

We want to make it a special place that we can all share!

We designed our very own eco code for our school using ideas and drawings from children throughout the school.

The School council looked at the different codes and chose:

This year we have elected Eco Warriors.

Each class has two eco warrior representatives.

Their job is to work as a team to:

Turn off lights when they are not being used

Turn off taps when they are not being used

Organise Eco assemblies and activity days

Look after the plants, wildflower garden & tyres

Look out for litter on the school grounds

However, it is everyones job to be responsible for the environment.

Our Eco Warriors 2011 / 2012

You can help us to be Eco Friendly by walking to school! We want to see as many families as possible walking, cycling, skating or scooting to school!

We are delighted to have recieved the Green Flag award. We are now working hard to ensure we keep it!

On Tuesday 12th April 2011 we were fortunate to have a special visit from the Mayor to officially present the Green Flag Award!

Our new eco warriors have decided our new projects should focus on recycling. We will be looking at different ways we can recycle more within school.

If you have any ideas please tell your class eco warriors!
