Eco Warriors
Welcome!
The Eco Team here at Longton is committed to ensuring that we, as a school, do all we can to be friendly to our environment. We have been awarded the presitigous Green Flag Award in recognition of the steps we have taken to make our school community increasingly eco-friendly.
We are keen to continue our good work and are always thinking of new ideas to improve our environmental impact.
The Eco Team is made up of Eco Warriors from Y1 to Y6. The pupils meet regularly and will be using this section of the school website to keep you up-to-date on some of our Eco activities and strategies.

ECO WARRIORS UPDATE: May 2013
The Eco Warriors have had a busy few weeks preparing flowers for the school fair, clearing the class flower beds of those nasty weeds, and orchestrating a much-needed 'tidy up' of the Greenhouse and Garden Shed.
Last Wednesday, we braved the heavy rain and wind and have had a great sort out of the bog garden. This week we were treated to some glorious sun.
A few photographs have been posted at the bottom of this page!

ECO Awareness Videos
February 2013 - This week, the Eco team have produced a series of short films to raise awareness of how we can all be more eco-friendly in school. The videos show common examples of behaviour that may seem harmless but is actually damaging to our world!
Can you spot the mistakes? The videos are all HERE

- This week (22nd - 26th Oct), Angela Coulton and Mr Coxhead helped us as we cleared the flower beds at the front of school and planted new bulbs! It was great fun.
