Eco Council

At Sherwood, we are passionate about addressing environmental issues throughout our school.  We believe that an eco-school encourages teamwork and helps create a better understanding of environmental issues.  

Sherwood Climate Pledge

At Sherwood, we have a climate pledge. This was written by our Eco-Warriors, in partnership with our elected Pupil Parliament representatives. This powerful message is a reminder to us all to take action to support a 'greener' tomorrow.

It's Up to Us Challenge 2023

In 2022-2023, we set a Sustainability Challenge 2023 for each class. All classes were challenged to complete a series of sustainable tasks. The aim of each challenge is to raise the profile of the small actions that we can take, collectively, that will have a positive impact on the planet we share. As part of our challenge, all classes have received the book It’s Up to Us - a children’s Terra Carta for Nature, People and Planet. The Terra Carta is a plan or roadmap to sustainability issued by His Royal Highness King Charles.

This year, a child from each class at Sherwood was voted by their peers to become part of our new Sherwood Eco Council.  We hold meetings to discuss suggestions the children have recieved from their class mates and try to make a difference to our school's sustainability pledge.  We have a very passionate team who challenge issues and share discussions that have taken place in the meetings with the rest of the children in their class.  Have a read through our meeting minutes to see what we have been focusing on.  We feel it is important that the children understand what the role of being part of the eco-warriors entails and encourage them to volunteer to spread the message of how to help enhance the environment and community we live in.
