St Richard's contribution to summit

Amelia Harrison, Tilly Maher and Isaac Morrison delivered a lively and engaging presentation which explained the actions that have been taken at their school.

Part of their presentation included a video portraying the different events and changes that have taken place at the college which aim to create a more environmentally-friendly school.

The St. Richard’s presentation won the support from schools across the county in a ballot taken during the summit. The team were delighted to be announced as joint winners on the day.

In addition to their presentation success, the youngsters enjoyed their day at the summit immensely. They took part in three different workshops on the themes on electricity, waste emission and energy use.

This was also a great opportunity for them to meet with others from different schools in order to share their ways of becoming sustainable schools.

Tilly Maher, of the Bexhill team, said: “We learnt a lot through all the different workshops and overall, it was a very worthwhile and enjoyable experience.”
