Radeco
Summary:
We are working towards making The Radcliffe School more eco-friendly, as even little changes can have a big impact.
Our meetings take place every Friday lunchtime, in room 33 – everyone is welcome, bring lunch too.
Did you know?
The new Sports Hall is really environmentally friendly – it can generate its own electricity! There are also lots of bat and bird boxes – take a look around the building.
We already recycle lots of our rubbish using the white bags from the council.
Some of our Radeco students took part in the #studentsstrikeforclimate march to show their support for the environment.
Current and future projects:
Plastic in the canteen – working with the Catering Manager to find possible alternatives
‘Turn off the Lights’ – campaign to encourage students and staff to turn off lights at the end of the day, using small signs made on recycled paper and reminders on the computer screens.
Eco Survey – we had over 100 responses to our survey about the environment
Eco Board – we are currently designing ideas for our own Eco Board
Encouraging students and staff to be more environmentally aware – Good Morning Radcliffe slide every week with news, facts and ideas.
Working with the School Council to discuss ideas for improving cycling facilities for students
Save the wildlife – adopting an endangered animal for our school
Fundraising
Terracycle – recycling crisp packets and batteries in school
