Autumn Term report

This term saw the election of the Planet Protectors from each class. The children had to prepare a speech about why they wanted to be a Planet Protector and represent their class. Two children were elected to form a committee.

Some of the responsibilities of our council include:

• Chairing meetings for their class and taking down their ideas
• Sharing information about campaigns the Planet Protectors are taking part in
• Making sure the school grounds are encouraging for nature
• Representing the school at events and meeting with other children
• Hosting assemblies to inform our friends about campaigns
• Carrying out eco surveys
• Reporting to governors and leaders of the school
• Maintaining the veg beds for the school

Planet Protectors have refreshed the school eco-audit, identifying existing strengths and areas for further development across biodiversity, litter, recycling, water and wildlife habitats. Findings have been used to identify pupil-led priorities for the year ahead.
