Go Green School Award

Sep 29th, 2008 by Chris Duggan | No comments yet

Do you know a deserving school or individual that deserves to be awarded for an environmental project?

The Birmingham Mail newspaper has just launched the Schools Awards and are welcoming entries now. The Go Green School Award is one of 8 categories in the awards. Three shortlisted entries from each category will be invited to an awards ceremony in December which will be held at Thinktank, Millenium Point.

The judges will be looking for how the whole school has made or is making changes to become more sustainable. These might be changes made by the efforts of one class, the whole school or an eco-committee. We would like to see how you have managed to raise awareness and instigate changes within the school, for example, using poster campaigns, research, setting up eco-committees, class environmental champions, etc. Areas to be considered are water and energy conservation, walking buses/transport, recycling, etc.
