Sustainable Schools

Best practice: → Carry out litter picking in the school grounds or in surrounding areas on a regular basis; → In spring or autumn, initiate a tree-planting campaign within the community; → Decorate waste bins to make them more colourful. This may encourage more people to put their litter in the bin; → Start a graffiti cleaning crew; → Use school premises beyond school hours for adult education classes, sports teams and for local groups wanting a place to meet for their various leisure activities. This supports the idea of sustainability, particularly when several activities are happening at the same time, with heating and lighting being used to full capacity.
