We are the Eco-Committee at Cwmclydach Primary School. Croeso!
On this page you will find out about our progress and keep up to date with our latest ideas and work.
To be an Eco friendly school we must cover all 9 areas. The 9 areas are;
Bio-diversity (Year 6)
Waste-minimisation (Year 5)
Energy (Year 4)
Water (Year 3)
Litter (Year 2)
Transport (Year 1 + Reception)
School grounds (Nursery)
Global Citizenship
Health, food and well being
Each class could choose 1 area each. We decided that Global Citizenship and Health, Food & Well-being would be covered by everybody.
Below is the evidence we spoke about to support our application. We have worked really hard!
Tim from Keep Wales Tidy was extremely impressed with all the hard work and progress we had made.
He said;
It was great to catch up with some of the Eco Committee in our virtual meeting and hear about all the eco work that has been carried out. It is brilliant that you have that whole school involvement through each class taking a topic, and your work to help charities is really notable. Incorporating the costume swapshop into your World Book Day book swap is a lovely idea and one we will share. It is clearly evident that the pupils are comfortable using their voices and sharing ideas - incorporating litterpicking into your ramble was a great action. I look forward to hearing about more of your work in the future.
