Welcome!
This site has been put together by a team of year 7 pupils at Chepstow School exploring sustainability and the environment as part of an ongoing project. All content and imagery has been generated by year 7 pupils who have been credited at the bottom of each page unless otherwise stated. The project title is "Sustainable Futures", and this web site has been put together to let you know exactly what you can do, to live a more sustainable life and help protect the environment. We hope you find it informative. Thank you. M. Anthony
Who are we?
We are Chepstow Comprehensive School year 7 set 2, our subject for thinking skills is Sustainability. All thanks to our teacher Mr Anthony this website is now live!!
What are we doing?
We are currently gathering information to go on our website to teach people about sustainability. We have five compost bins and are collecting organic food scraps from the canteen to put in the compost bins. Soon we will try to get some worms to put in the bins then we will actually make the compost to use to help grow our own foods to live a more sustainable future.
Our Goals.
As a class we are learning about sustainability, so we set ourselves some goals to try and achieve. Our class are hoping to make people more aware of global warming, sustainability and how to live a more greener life. What we hope to achieve in one year is to get a garden to grow our own vegetables and create our own compost in compost bins. Our long term aim is to make everyone in Monmouthshire aware of global warming, sustainability and how to live a greener life by possibly running courses and coaching people how to become more sustainable.
Future Prospects.
Chepstow School would like to achieve the Green Flag (it means the school is very eco-friendly) and to achieve this we need to use recycling bins and have School dinners made from local produce. We need to try and get most pupils into the habit of catching a bus or walking to school as opposed to travelling by car. We are currently negotiating possible sculptures for our outside area where most people spend their break time and lunch time to symbolise a new begining or fresh start and help people become more aware of their surroundings. We hope to become a recycling resource in the community.
Primary School poster competition
A big well done and thank you for all those who took part in our thinkfootprint competition. These posters were voted the best, because we felt that they included a lot of relevant information about sustainability and environmental awareness.
