Eco schools is a project for local schools and nurseries, asking children, staff, parents and community members to become involved in improving their local environment. It also encourages children to think globally as well as locally.

There are eight topics of eco schools which are 

• Energy                                     
• Waste minimisation                                                                          
• Litter
• Water                 
• Health and well-being                                                                    
• Transport                                                                  
• School grounds                                                               
• Biodiversity                                                              

The nursery will only tackle three of the topics and work on them. If we work hard at the three main topics then we can maintain our Green Flag award.

Parents are encouraged to participate in these Core Groups, overseeing these areas.
