Eco-Council

About us

We are the St. Julian’s Primary School Eco Council. There are thirteen of us in total ranging from Y4-Y6.  To be Eco Warriors, we had to prepare a short presentation outlining our main aims and promises. We meet weekly and discuss current issues around the nine Eco topics and how they may be addressed in school.  Every new project undertaken at school takes environmental consequences into consideration as we try to minimise the impact on our environment. With the help and dedication of all pupils and staff at St Julian’s Primary School we have already achieved our Eco-Schools Platinum Green Flag!

What we do

As Eco Council, we have given ourselves the following job description…

• To carry out an environmental review to evaluate our school’s performance against the nine Eco topics and write an action plan for the year ahead.
• Renew our Platinum Green flag by keeping our school environmentally friendly and a sustainable place.
• Follow our Eco Code by promoting environmental awareness and understanding to pupils, staff and the wider community.
• Share our Eco work by organising assemblies, hold an Eco stall during key events such as Fairtrade Fortnight/ Christmas Bazaar and collaborate together to organise fun school events and competitions.
• Be reflective learners when monitoring and evaluating the impact of our Eco action.
• Present our work to our Governing Body on a regular basis.
• Evaluate our action plan at the end of the year and identify our strengths and areas to improve for the following year.
