ECO Committee

  The staff and pupils at Gnoll Primary believe there is a real need to change the way we live to protect the environment.

Our vision includes a whole school approach to create a sustainable action plan. We aim to enhance awareness and involvement in all aspects of sustainability. The children are the driving force behind all our environmental work and have been so for the past 12 years when our first Eco Committee was started.

Our Eco Committee pupil members are drawn from Years 2 to 6. Each representative is chosen by his or her class or year group via a nomination/election process.
