Patcham Junior School has saved £21,761 in electricity costs since installing the solar panels in 2020, and reduced its CO2 emissions by 35.73 tonnes. This is equivalent to planting 559 trees saplings. (BHESCo Report 2025)
"THIS WEEK'S SUSTAINABILITY TIP"
DAVID ATTENBOROUGH’S 100TH BIRTDAY – On the 8th May, David Attenborough is turning 100 years old. His 100th birthday should be a meaningful moment for all of us. He is a century of living proof that childhood curiosity, when it isn’t extinguished, can change how the entire world sees itself

What can you do?
· The Attenborough Narration Contest - Ask kids to pick any creature or plant they can observe — a bee on a flower, a squirrel in a tree, a line of ants crossing the path — and narrate what they see in their best Attenborough voice. Bonus point for dramatic pauses.
· Make your own Nature Documentary - Take the narration contest one step further and film it. Armed with nothing more than a phone or tablet, kids can become directors, camera operators, and on-screen talent all at once.
· Watch an Attenborough Documentary Together - Choose an episode of Planet Earth, Blue Planet or Life on Earth and watch together as a family - outdoors if you can, under a blanket as the sun goes down.
Our Sustainability Plan page is regularly updated and you can find all weekly Sustainablility Tips added at the bottom of the page.
