• Letter from our Local MP- Sarah Dines

  Mon 26 Feb 2024

  As part of the pupils’ action to help improve our school environment, the school council have emailed the COOP, Marks and Spencer’s and our local MP, Sarah Dines.
  The children were really pleased to receive a letter from Sarah Dines who said she would come in to see the children and explain what the government are doing to reduce the single use plastic. She will be visiting school on Thursday 28th March in the afternoon, to discuss her role, and to watch our Easter Bonnet parade.
  
  Before she arrives we will be spending some time creating questions to ask her, so please speak to your children about her role and how she can help the children to get their voice heard.

  

• Learning about Waste Management

  Sun 04 Feb 2024

  As part of our ongoing work with the school council to improve environment and reduce plastic waste, the children have written letters to the local MP Sarah Dines, the Manager of Wirksworth Coop and Manager of M and S in Matlock. Hopefully we will have a response back quickly and hear about what they are doing to reduce their single use plastic. As part of our caring motto, we have had DCC waste management in to learn about recycling in Derbyshire; where to recycle; what we can recycle and why we recycle.  The children had a great time and all got to sit in the recycling truck and have their photo taken.
