Meet our Eco Council
We are Ysgol Penrhyn’s Eco Council. At the start of every school year each pupil has the opportunity to stand as a candidate in the Eco Council election. Every child votes and the two children with the most votes from each class become Eco Councilors.
The Eco Council aims to give the children a voice. It allows them to express their opinions and ask questions. It gives children the opportunity to be listened to and for them to organise appropriate action. Council members take suggestions, made by their classmates, to meetings where they are discussed and decided upon by a vote.
Aims
Ysgol Penrhyn’s Eco Council believes that all members of the school community have the right to learn, work and socialise in a clean, safe and happy environment.
- We will strive to be a litter free environment.
- We will encourage respect for the environment.
- We will aim to reduce, reuse and recycle when possible as means to reducing litter.
What we’ve been doing…
Our Eco Council members have been busy creating posters to promote recycling within our school. They all enjoyed displaying them around the classes and learning environments. Da iawn pawb!
