We are delighted to announce that Laleham Lea has been awarded the Eco-Schools Green Flag, with distinction!
The Eco-Schools programme was established in 1994 and is now delivered in more than 70 countries across the globe. More than 1 million pupils attended an Eco-School in England in 2022-23.
The school’s Eco-Committee, comprised of students from all age groups from Nursery to Year 6, formed last September then conducted an environmental review assessing how eco-friendly their school was. They reviewed everything from biodiversity within the school grounds to how pupils and staff members travel to school.
Building on their findings, pupils then planned a year of action designed to advance their school’s green credentials, improve their local environment, and protect our planet.
Ms Ladiao, Eco-Coordinator for Laleham Lea said: “I am so proud of how hard our whole school community worked to attain this award. We have already started work to elect this year’s Eco-Committee and plan to build on our achievements over the coming months to further help protect and care for our planet.”
Acting Head Teacher Mrs Reece said: “It has been truly inspirational to see the students’ passion and motivation to help take care of God’s World. I cannot wait to see their plans for the coming year.”
