WOW Walk to School Launch

We are excited to announce the launch of our new WOW Walk to School initiative across the whole school, from Year 1 to Year 6. Each morning, children record how they travelled to school, encouraging them to think about making active and sustainable choices.

If children walk, scoot, cycle or travel actively for the majority of the month, they will earn a special eco badge at the end of the month — and they can work towards a new badge every month. For families who need to drive, we also promote our Park and Stride option, where you park around 10 minutes away and walk the final part of the journey to school.

So far, the children have loved coming in each morning and selecting how they travelled, and it has been fantastic to see so many pupils starting the day in a healthy, positive way while helping the environment too.

🌱 Eco Club Update

At Eco After School Club, the children became sustainable designers! Using Lego, they created houses and buildings with the environment in mind. They thought carefully about how their buildings could be eco-friendly, including ways to generate energy using solar panels and collect and reuse water.

The children showed great creativity and teamwork while learning how small design choices can help protect our planet. We were really impressed with their ideas and enthusiasm for building a greener future!
