Eco Week!

Ollie is a QEH ‘lifer’, as he joined QEH Juniors in Year 3, eleven years ago.  It’s been great to watch his development through the years, both on and off the pitch.

Our pupils took part in various enrichment activities, with a focus on the environment and our ecological impact, for this years Eco Week!

Year 7 pupils enjoyed a visit to Slimbridge

Despite the weather, pupils enjoyed a visit to explore the importance of one of our largest local wetlands at Slimbrigde. All the recent flooding and incessant rain has provided excellent habitats for our wading birds & native mushrooms this year at least, as they found out!

Our Year 9 Community Litter Pickers

All of our Year 9 pupils were out surveying litter (as well as picking it up!) in the local community this week, as part of their commitment to Eco Week. In total they brought back 27kg of waste and recycling, increasing the previous years’ totals of 17kg and 25kg. This annual survey and wider litter pick is part of our commitment to the Keep Britain Tidy’s Great British Spring Clean, so many thanks to all Year 9 pupils and all staff involved!

Jenga-Jigsaw creations

Some lovely Jenga tower masterpieces were made by our Year 8 students during enrichment this week. They were tasked with creating a water or river scene on their wooden towers and hessian storage bags, after some informative video clips to set the scene. Junior and Senior School students will be able to use the jenga towers, with some being given to New Oak Academy for their use.

What a fantastic week; it’s great to see such an important cause embedded in the education of QEH pupils.
