Eco Code
| The current eco code was designed by Ryan Scott 5D2
"Give a hoot, don't pollute" Ryan won a competition in PSE with all pupils competing. This year we aim to update the Eco Code in a whole school competition. |

Food and the Environment
The school garden was created four and a half years ago.
A selection of fruit and vegetables are grown each year including
carrots
brocolli
tomatoes
fresh herbs
and much, much more........
Second year Biology pupils have also investigated companion planting and ecological pesticides to maintain the garden.
The compost from the compost bin is finally ready to be used after years of recycling canteen food.
Unfortunately our greenhouse blew away last year. We would appreciate any donation towards a new one.
