Throughout November, our team and many of our families, have been taking part in the Eco-Schools Carbon Cut Challenge, a six-week initiative encouraging simple, everyday actions that help reduce our carbon footprint.
Each week, we’ve introduced a new sustainable action, covering themes like food, travel, energy use, and reducing waste. The response from both our team and families has been fantastic, it’s been wonderful to see everyone getting involved and making small but meaningful changes.
Here are some of the challenges we’ve been embracing:
🌍 Making three meals plant-based
🌍 Swapping three journeys for active travel
🌍 Enjoying a device-free day
🌍 Planning meals to reduce food waste
🌍 Washing at 30°C
🌍 Turning the heating down by 1°C
These simple steps help children learn about caring for our planet and show how small changes can make a big difference, especially when we do them together 🌿
We’re proud of our Poole community for leading the way, and we hope this inspires other families to join in too.
Let’s keep the momentum going and continue building a greener, more sustainable future for our children ♻️
