At Wave Trust we are committed to our sustainability strategy.
We have a Climate Action Plan in place. We monitor our Carbon Emission Savings 鈥� even having a league table for a bit of competition within Wave settings. Who will sit at the top of the table by reducing their emissions the most this year?
We have termly projects 鈥� this term it is all about waste management and is being driven by our Eco-Champions. Rethink, reduce, reuse, recycle. Following new legislation, we separate our food waste and have this collected but we are also working on a composting project. Each academy will receive a compost bin kit to build with the pupils. To reduce overall waste all kitchen scraps, peelings, and other compostable materials can be added to the bins and turned regularly to aerate the pile. This will not only reduce food waste but will produce nutrient rich compost. This compost can then be used in the academy gardens to produce fruit and vegetables to use in our cooking lessons. All this fits in nicely with our ongoing healthy school food project.
We have two patches of woodland for the use of our academies in Cornwall & Devon which also helps us offset our carbon footprint. These resources give our pupils the opportunity to learn from and enjoy nature. In Forrest School and Learning Outside of the Classroom we can offer hands-on lessons, building confidence, curiosity and connection with the world.
We always encourage our pupils to take care of our environment, but the litter picking and pollution surveys at the beach this academic year have been a thought-provoking experience. So much plastic! #BeatPlasticPollution
Let鈥檚 take care of and enjoy our environment.
