Certification as an Eco School

3 in 1

This year the More Earth team has taken on the challenge of becoming a certified Eco School. Certification recognizes a school for its environmental initiatives, awarding the school bronze, silver or gold EcoSchool status depending on how successfully the school has met the requirements of the program. To become certified, a school must demonstrate achievement in at least 4 key areas: energy conservation, waste minimization, ecological literacy and school ground greening for shade and energy conservation.

More Earth is working hard to begin initiatives in all areas to create a more eco-friendly school environment. The Waste Management team is working to reduce the amount of waste generated by the school, and promote the “3 Rs”- Recycle, Reduce, Reuse. The Energy Conservation group will have a key focus on reducing the amount of energy being used in unoccupied spaces throughout the day and weekends. The Greening committee will be working on promoting activities such as clean-up days and tree planting.

We are urging all staff, students, and families of the St. Thomas More community to help us in our endeavours.
