The EEPG is currently running a number of projects around the school, details of the projects can be found on its Instagram page (eastleaecoprojectsgroup). Have a look for yourself but are some of the highlights.
These projects are in different stages but Project 1 (Solar film on the windows) has now been completed after research, pitching to the Headteacher and the governors and installing test samples across the school.
In addition, 3 members of our group - Ricy, Tina and Sam, have got through to the final of the Earth Echo Project for a chance to win £5,000 - they have currently produced a film and project around increasing the biodiversity of the school field.

Library Reminder for Year 11 Students
Currently, a lot of Y11 students have overdue library books. All students with books on loan will have received email reminders to return their books to the library before they leave.
Can you please remind your son/daughter to return their library books as soon as they finish their exams?
