Eco Warriors

At the beginning of each academic year each class elects 2 representatives for Eco-Warriors. The Eco-Warriors have an active role in school. They raise awareness about sustainability and encourage everyone to be good at recycling and saving energy. We encourage good habits for the future, being an Eco-Warrior is an extremely important job and is one to be very proud of.
