Thornhill Eco Committee
The Eco Committee is voted in each year by children in Year 2-6. They are children who are passionate about improving the world we live in and protecting the environment. Meetings are held regularly with Miss Price and we are proud to have achieved the Platinum Eco Status from Eco Schools Wales.
So far this year, the Eco Committee have made videos telling others how to have an eco Christmas and Halloween, given away lots of old uniforms to families so that they do not need to buy new ones (saving water and CO2 as well as reducing waste in landfill). They have also planted lots more trees and hedges on our grounds which will provide lovely habitats for animals and will help clean the air for us. In April they organised a community litter pick and we collected 18 bags of litter! We have encouraged parents and grandparents to bring reusable cups to our events.
