Eco Week 2023 at St. George's
  • School Activities
St. George's British International School

The week of 20th to 24th March, O Castro British International School joined Globeducate's ECO Week, along with the rest of the group's schools around the world. It was a week of intense learning, both inside and outside the classroom, with environmental awareness and care as the common thread. As a Globeducate school, we are fully aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals and the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations. A commitment that we share with all the schools in the group to work together to end poverty, fight inequality and tackle climate change. 

 This was the context for ECO Week, which this year included a wide range of activities, talks and workshops to raise awareness among the entire educational community about the need to act today in order to face the great challenges that our students will have to face in the future, also our Planet. From workshops and talks, to quizzes organised by WWF, to the celebration of special days such as, Thick Jumper Day.

The Eco School Coordinator said: "This is been our first Eco-week owning the green flag and we had to show it. We looked around the world and learned about people who is making a change, Coldplay as an example. They said they weren’t going to tour until it was more sustainable and they made it. We also learned about endangered species and how we can help them, like birds around our local area making some bird feeders, taking some fruit scraps and making butterfly food".

Also, some students took a paper leaf and made a promise for this year, a promise about what they are going to do this year to help the planet and climate change. "I’m so proud of my green warriors and I can’t wait to see what other ideas they have this next term", concluded.
