Westfield School

"At Westfield Academy, Eco Club members have ensured that we are environmentally safe. We have shown this by doing various activities to improve the environment around our school. This involved planting trees and spring bulbs, building our own vibrant bug hotel and litter picking around the site, picking up almost 5kg of rubbish! Another activity that we enjoyed was setting up camera traps and seeing the wildlife that live at our school. We went on a naturistic trip down the road to our local Cassiobury Park, taking part in a nature trail led by the amazing Esme, who showed us all about our local rivers and wildlife living in the different habitats there.

In future, we plan to go on other environmental trips to learn more about other habitats, such as Whipsnade Zoo. On site, we will also be building vegetable patches to grow our own food, and will build a pond to attract and support other aquatic organisms on site. Furthermore, all members of Eco Club have collaborated and have worked so hard to make our school an eco-friendly place."
