Primary School

November has been an exciting and productive month for our Eco-School community!

We kicked off a new initiative by organizing and improving the Recycling Centers in our Primary and ESO classrooms.

We kicked off a new initiative by organizing and improving the Recycling Centers in our Primary and ESO classrooms. Our hardworking ESO Committee members also designed creative recycling posters, which were placed in Primary classes to remind everyone how to separate and recycle waste correctly. Thank you for helping us turn awareness into action! 

A very special congratulations goes to Valentina, Dylan, Camila and Martín, the winners of this year’s Eco-Comic Contest!
Their comics showed outstanding creativity and a true commitment to improving our school environment. We are incredibly proud of their dedication and eco-spirit!

Our Eco-Heroes are once again leading the “Plastic Not Fantastic” campaign. They participated in the PK assembly, teaching our youngest learners the importance of reducing single-use plastics in their snacks.
The best part? Many families have already shared evidence of the powerful agency our little ones are showing at home, amazing work, eco-families! Keep it up! 

On November 28th, we held our first whole-committee Eco-School Assembly, bringing together parents, students, teachers and non-academic staff. The goal was to begin designing a school improvement plan.
This year, we are especially focused on becoming more conscious consumers, mainly during school events. Soon, we will share the outcomes of this meeting with the entire community.

Halloween brought extra fun… and extra opportunities to be sustainable!
Our Eco-Committee encouraged all Primary classes to decorate mindfully, launching a competition for the most sustainable Halloween decoration.
Huge congratulations to Class 1C, our winning champions! They impressed everyone with a real pumpkin and thoughtfully reused materials, fantastic example of eco-creativity! 

See you in December for more eco-adventures!
