Eco Schools |
For a number of years Grouville Primary School has taken positive steps towards raising children’s awareness of their environment, both locally and on a global scale. We have already achieved our Bronze Eco Schools Award and are working towards Silver status.

Grouville's Eco Active Team helped shape the design of Grouville's Co-op Locale. This project was so successful that it was nominated for the IGD 'Innovative Store of the Year Award' in 2015. The judges were so impressed with our community work, that our project was awarded second place - a very proud moment for us all!
Grouville School is registered to take part in the UK Eco-Schools programme. This promotes environmental awareness within schools and links to many curriculum areas. It works through a democratic process to promote a sense of responsibility throughout the whole school to improve the local and wider environment. By encouraging pupils to take responsibility for the environmental management of their school, it is hoped they will develop an increased sense of responsibility for their surroundings.

In 2007 we set up an Environment group, there are 10 representatives in the group, one from each class from Years 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Each representative has been given an environment badge to wear. Their job is to keep the rest of the school up to date with what is happening. They will also listen to any ideas the children may have as to what we could or should do to help improve our school environment. These will be brought up at future meetings.
