Etz Chaim Jewish Primary School

Eco Friends

The Eco Friends meet once every two weeks. They have evaluated Etz Chaim's Eco profile, which we found to be good with only a few areas to improve on. 

 

We have held an assembly showcasing our findings and launched our plastic information treasure hunt, where our school friends had the opportunity to look around the playground for answers to questions on plastics. 

 

We have also raised awareness of the importance of recycling batteries and created a battery recycling unit in our foyer which to date has recycled over 1000 AA's, over 500 AAA's and over 300 other types of batteries.

 

We have looked at air pollution and how we can improve it.

 

Below is a photo of the Eco friends working hard together on their new project. We are asking all members of the Etz Chaim School community to bring in 3 pieces of litter, which we will turn into a display encouraging everyone to reduce, reuse, recycle.
We can't wait to see how this project develops.
