ECO WEEK

open to all pupils. This exciting line-up includes a ‘Mindfulness in Nature’ session in our Forest School; an eco-art activity inspired by Nancy Azara’s leaf art; a nature walk around the campus; as well as some fun recycling relays, and a daily weather check. In Wellbeing lessons, all Junior School pupils will have the opportunity to contemplate why nature is so precious through reading stories from the book Slow Down by Rachel Williams and Freya Hartas. We will all take some time to go outside and explore what can be found when we take the time to slow down.
