Abingdon School’s first Sustainability Day took place on Monday with all 3rd Year pupils taking part in a range of activities designed to educate students about the school’s, and their own environmental responsibilities. Representatives from One Planet Abingdon and Enso Energy came to speak to the pupils about what they do to improve sustainability. Following this, pupils visited key areas of sustainability around the school site and Lower Sixth Psychology students led sessions on the techniques to encourage behavioural change. The remainder of the day involved several decision making and investigation activities to give pupils a different stance on what can be done to improve sustainability on both a local and global scale. Overall, the day was a success and fostered a deeper understanding and commitment to environmental stewardship among the students.
