St. Paul's Catholic Primary SchoolEco Council
Inspired by Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’ and our school’s mission statement, the community at St. Paul’s is deeply committed to caring for our common home. As a Catholic school, we recognise our responsibility to cherish God’s creation and protect the environment for future generations. One way we live out this mission is through our active participation in the Eco-Schools Programme.
The Eco-Schools Green Flag is a prestigious accreditation that celebrates schools raising environmental awareness while taking meaningful action towards sustainability. St. Paul’s has achieved the award many times and once we have been honoured with the award at distinction level—a testament to the dedication and hard work of our entire school community. This year, through the development of our Climate Action Plan, we are once again striving to gain Eco-Schools status.
Established in 1994, the Eco-Schools Programme now runs in over 70 countries worldwide, encouraging young people to engage with key environmental issues such as climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. At St. Paul’s, our pupils are empowered to take the lead—designing and delivering projects that make a difference within our school, in our local community, and beyond.
Our green initiatives do not stop at the school gates. As Catholics, we are especially mindful that it is the world’s poorest communities who will suffer most from the effects of climate change. With this in mind, we remain committed to fundraising and supporting projects that bring hope and practical help to those most in need, both locally and internationally.
