It’s hard to believe we have completed 5 weeks of our Eco Schools Home Challenge – that means we are halfway through and there are only 5 weeks left of our challenge! We had a record number of photos sent in – 32 photos in total so well done to everyone! A huge thanks to everyone who is taking the time to complete some of the activities and send in photos. It’s great to see everyone making the most of the nice weather by taking part in outdoor activities.
For the Green House, we had Jack, Zara, Jan, Alistair and Ailsa who were helping with the recycling rubbish, hanging out washing and doing some summer planting.
For the Yellow House, Adam, Ben, Ryan, Olivia and Carys were busy hanging out washing, looking after plants, tidying up the garden and putting out the recycling bin.
Rebekah, John, Gracie and Will earned points for the Red House by taking part in different activities such as looking after their own window boxes, climbing trees and making their name with sticks.
Finally, for the Blue House we had Ruby, Sophie, Katie, Alfie, Alivia and Sarah who were keeping busy by hanging out washing, planting, doing art activities such as painting stones, making plaques and using junk materials. Bonus points for some pupils whose emails for previous weeks didn’t make it to me before now.

Another impressive week of Eco Schools activities happening in all your homes, gardens and neighbourhoods. It is brilliant to see people entering every single week and also a huge well done to those entering for the first time this week. The Green House really stepped up this week with Jan, Jasmine, Juliana, Alistair, Ailsa, Jack and Zara getting involved in painting stones, hanging out the washing, making their names with sticks and helping with the recycling. For the Red and Blue Houses, we had Rebekah, John and Sarah who were busy helping to put out the recycling bin, making a fabulous sign for their house and a brilliant animal feeder from junk materials. The Yellow House entries came from Hanna, Ben and Ryan who were enjoying time outside making their initials and rescuing a caterpillar. Special mention to Traffey the caterpillar, who has been made a new habitat and is now enjoying life at the Lamont house!
A huge thanks again to all the adults at home for taking the photos and finding the time to email them in, your effort and encouragement is very much appreciated. Keep up the fantastic Eco work Team Bocombra!
