Eco Action Group 2024-2025
What is the Eco Action Group?
The Eco Action Team help to ensure that our school is environmentally friendly and to raise awareness of Eco issues. We have an Eco Code for everyone in our school to abide by, this is based on the acrostic of RESPECT. The Eco Action Team is encouraging all pupils, staff and visitors to Victoria College Preparatory School to respect and look after our environment.
Our Action Groups were very busy this first term, to help fundraise money for new tablet technology.
They have carried out the following roles:
ECO & iTeam – To design posters for around school to promote the Fun Run
CAG & IAG: To design the sponsorship form for the Fun Run
Fairtrade Team & SNAG: To approach a local business to sponsor the event with a drink and snack. Pupils posted requests on Seesaw and were successful in getting a bottle of water and a packet of crisps per pupil.
School Council & Welcome: To design a flyer for Seesaw to promote the Fun Run.
The whole event was a huge success and raised more than £3500. We have since purchased 35 new tablets, cases and charging stations!
Action Group Fundraising Success
We have now purchased 35 new tablets and charging stations using the Fun Run fundraising money.
This year the Eco Action Team has a clear message for our peers, staff and families to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
