Green Schools Section
Welcome to our Green Schools section. Pupils and staff in St. Aiden's have been involved in the International Green Schools Environmental Programme for over 20 years! We have 11 green flag awards. Each flag awarded requires working on a new environmental theme, while sustaining work on previous themes.
The themes we are involved in are: Travel; Waste Management and litter ....reuse, reduce, recycle; Water; Energy; Marine Environmentl; Biodiversity and Developing Global Awareness and Citizenship. We received our 11th Green flag in June 2022. The theme was Global Citizenship Food and Biodiversity. We are now Green School Ambassadors
Pupils elect a new committee every two years.
The pupils took part in a mini beast hunt.
