Sustainability at The Pointer School

At The Pointer School we care deeply about the environment and the future of the planet for our children. We look to continuously to reduce our own impact on global heating and work to protect our planet through actions great and small.

Sustainability is integrated into our curriculum and also taught discreetly at points throughout the year.

Battery Recycling at the Lower School

If your child is in Marnic House - you can now bring household batteries and pop them directly in the Lower School box in the ground floor hallway!

A lovely moment: four months after receiving our battery recycling hub box, our full box was emptied and collected to be safely recycled!

  • It is fantastic to be doing what we can to keep dangerous batteries out of landfill and doing our part at The Pointer School.
  • The box is just inside the main entrance at the Pointer building.
  • Got a stash of dead batteries at home? Pop them in the box.

In Reception class during **Sustainability Week** , children have been using their Under The Sea topic to learn about looking after oceans as Saturday 8th June 2024 is World Oceans Day!

Aren't their posters beautiful?

*The Pointer School- A Trashion Show*

Monday 3rd June 2024 saw a terrific first for The Pointer School- A Trashion Show, and it was a roaring success!

Children from y1 to y6 worked together in houses to give a new life to materials we take for granted, and their creations were outstanding!
