Eco School

At All Saints Nursery we are constantly looking for ways to be environmentally friendly.

Being eco-friendly or environmentally friendly is becoming more and more important, due to problems like global warming. We are committed to having an eco-friendly nursery to do our part in reducing our carbon footprint.

We are an Eco School and have a Climate Action Plan in place.

What is an Eco School?

There are nine topics which are used for the Environmental Review and linking the programme into the curriculum.

The Eco Schools topics are:

  • Litter
  • Waste minimisation
  • Energy
  • Water
  • Transport
  • Healthy Living
  • School grounds
  • Biodiversity
  • Global perspective

Eco Activities

Eco activities include litter picks, recycling and planting flowers. Environmental education is also made accessible and engaging through a range of curriculum links, for example looking at global issues in Early Years topics such as ‘Understanding the World’.

Forest School also offers a wide variety of opportunities for all kinds of Eco activities as pupils spend time outdoors and learn to appreciate the wonders of the natural world.
