How will you be sustainable this month?

Eco-Club have been busy working on the 'Bio-diversity' theme within our Green Flag application. Last week we made bird feeders out of recycled materials and filled them with bird seed. This week, we have hung them up and completed the RSPB annual Big Bird Watch. We were pleasantly surprised to spot a range of birds, including; a Red Kite, Sparrows, Robins, a Cormorant and many Pigeons, Seagulls and Magpies.

Next we used our expert building skills to repair our bug hotel. In addition to supporting pollinators, bug hotels encourage biodiversity by attracting a range of beneficial insects. Insects like ladybugs, butterflies, and predatory beetles are all drawn to these structures, helping to create a more diverse and balanced ecosystem. A perfect addition to our ever-improving pond area.

Eco-club took part in the 'Keep Britain Tidy' campaign: 'The Big School Clean' this week. We were quite shocked by how much litter we found, most of which was small bits of plastic, destined to be blown into the river if it wasn't for our efforts.
