Eco Committee
Mrs Williams leads the eco committee. It's our job to make sure everyone reduces, reuses and recycles as much as possible. We also make sure we save energy and water.
We have elected a new committee for 2024/25. You can ask the new Eco Warriors any questions/subjects you would like them to discuss in the Eco meetings.
