Eco Schools

In August 2023, the school retained its Eco School Green flag.

Abbot's Hall has proudly been an Eco School since 2009, when we gained our first Bronze award. We have since achieved the Silver award and the highest award, 'Green Flag' status. The ten Eco topics are embedded into the school curriculum and daily life of the school.

The Eco Committee

 As the name implies, our Eco Committee are committed to looking after the environment. This not only includes inside the school buildings, but also across the entire site and beyond.  The Eco Committee is made up of children from Years 1 - 6 who take responsibility for the running of the committee and its activities, including completing the Environmental Review, setting up the rota and carrying out daily litter picking, keeping minutes and reporting back to their peers on updates, and ensuring targeted recycling is maintained.

Transport

At Abbot's Hall, we have a 'Walking Bus' which runs every day before and after school. The 'Bus' walks the children to Asda where children are then collected by their adult. This initiative encourages children to walk to school rather than use a car and helps to reduce the amount of vehicles which are being driven close to the school, making the journey home to and from school safer for all.
