Swarm of bees on the middle of school today!! Bee man called- calmly put them in a box, said he would get us a hive, install it, and help train us to look after them!!! So excited to have bees next year!! @CJR_WCSA @SCJNetwork @EcoAvon @UKSchoolsSusty

My apologies to @JohnPenroseNews today - I did a lesson on COP, and climate. I mentioned Monday's climate briefing and discussed low turn out of MPs. They insisted on emailing him en masse to find out a) if he went and b) what his response was.

Thank you Yr9 for caring!!!

Some room for interpretation of course but our first poll suggests the #education #careers #skills and then #sustainability in #schools estates & operations action areas should be prioritised in the @educationgovuk #ClimateinEducation strategy delivery💬🌍🧑🏾‍🤝‍🧑🏻

"I want to be part of this too"

Have you read our response to the @educationgovuk's #sustainability & #climate strategy yet? https://t.co/lQHVATKt1N 📰
Over the next few weeks we're conducting polls to gauge what others think 💬
First, we'd love to know which of the strategy proposals excite you the most? 💚🌍

Useful pieces in @tes & @SchoolsWeek @NGAEmmaK on need for proper practical, financial, SLT & governor support in #climate strategy 🌍
