Winwick Eco Warriors - Think Global Act Local

Aim

To educate children on the challenges facing our planet and the global environment, and then identify key ways to help combat these problems

Winwick Eco Warriors is an Eco Club based and run from Winwick C.E Primary School in Warrington.  Our aim is to educate the children at our school and in our local community about the challenges facing our planet and the global environment.  We will work with the children to devise and implement practical ways to combat these problems.  Winwick Eco Warriors THINK GLOBAL and ACT LOCAL.  The lessons that the children learn will be life-long and something they can share at home with their families and pass on to future generations.....

OUR VISION

Our vision is to play a real and constructive part in combatting some of the greatest challenges in our environment today e.g.;

• Pollution
• Global Warming
• Waste Disposal
• Loss of Biodiversity
• Ocean Acidification
• Acid Rain etc.

Together with others around the world who share the same vision......we can do this.....

HOW WILL WE USE THE FUNDS

Winwick Eco Warriors will use funds raised to purchase materials to effectively grow and run our Eco Club.   We will develop engaging, informative and interactive learning materials.  The development of our school Butterfly Garden is a key focus.  We would like to;

• Develop an area to grow Fruit and Vegetables
• Set up a School Market where we will sell Produce that the children have grown
• Launch a pre-loved School Uniform Exchange
• Develop a Wormery
• Create a Flower Garden to attract Bees & Butterflies 

Additionally, through our education programmes we aim to;

• Further reduce general waste at school 
• Reduce the use of plastics 
• Encourage creative recycling initiatives
• Promote walking to school and join a local council initiative, thereby reducing fuel consumption
• Extend our work and involvement with the Winwick Litter Network
• Engage with our local community

CONCLUSION 

Our vision and messages will be shared with everybody who works at or attends Winwick C.E. Primary School.  We will encourage them to go out and share our lessons and messages loudly and proudly.  

Education, knowledge and information sharing is key, and putting practical solutions in place will help us to save and preserve our planet and environment for future generations to come.
