We would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to Debbie and Litter-free Felixstowe for donating litter-picking equipment to our schools. Our enthusiastic children are enjoying making good use of the equipment.
School Council
Our school council representatives carried out questionnaires with their classes, to find out what they feel is working well at school and what can be done to improve our school. Following a meeting, where the representatives shared the feedback from each class, Year 6 children interviewed Mr. Girling to find out what changes could be made.

Our Eco Warriors make a stand to stop a woodland area being destroyed.
Following some work carried out by our children to stop a number of trees being felled, we were invited to help plant trees to enhance the woodland area. As well as taking part in such a wonderful project, the children have learnt that their opinions matter and they have a voice in the community.
