The Big Tidy Up
On Saturday 18th March children from St George’s helped tidy up the village as part of The Big Tidy Up nation wide event. Taking part in the Big Tidy Up is a great way to teach children about the problem of litter. With litter being a major issue for many schools across the country.

November Energy Month
Building on our successful Switch Off Fortnight campaign, we’re launching Energy Month this year in November. It’s an opportunity for children to learn, act and inspire. There will be resources covering: the big energy issues e.g. security of supply and how to produce energy in a low carbon way as well as information and activities on how to reduce the amount of energy we use.
Well Done St George’s
The Eco team found 22 lights on when they did their first survey. On Wednesday, there were only 9 lights left on in empty rooms.
Remember if there is no-one in the room
SWITCH OFF
Please encourage your child to save energy.
The school is very excited about our new ‘hedgehog house’ made by Mr Dudley. The ECO team have decorated it and Mr Davis will put a camera inside the so we can spy on the new residents. Thank you to Mrs Butt for organising this.
