Eco Council
In 2023, rather than pick two children out of each class to be on our Eco-Council we created an after school club where any child from Year 2 to Year 6 could volunteer to stay after school one night a week and help look after our world. They are called the St Peter's Planet Protectors.
Planet Protectors - Spring 2025
The Planet Protectors have been busy picking up litter and tidying up the school grounds. They have put up new posters to encourage us to look after our world and put out bird feeders.

How Big Is Your Carbon Footprint?
The Eco Council have been completing a quiz to see how big their carbon (eco) footprint is - this the impact they have on the planet. You could take the quiz too and see if you are an eco-star or whether you could do more to look after the world we live in.
