Last year, Combe School took part in the Green Schools Project, which educates pupils about ways to reduce carbon. The Year 5/6 class worked in groups of 5 or 6 to deliver a carbon reducing project.
One group held a tuck shop selling vegan cookies, cakes and flapjacks, while another sold delicious vegan carrot cakes. The third group made delicious banana milkshakes, satsuma juice and apple juice using leftover KS1 fruit, which they been collecting and freezing each week. What a great way to use up unwanted fruit! Another group launched 'no waste Wednesdays', where they encouraged all pupils to reduce food waste at lunchtime. The final group, hosted a 'low electricity day', challenging staff and pupils to avoid activities which use electricity.
Well done to all pupils involved and thank you to everyone in the school community for supporting their ideas.
