Sustainability
Our Green Promise: Climate Action at Chater Junior School.
Everyone is aware that our world is facing a crisis caused by pollution, a lack of recycling and poor waste management and energy efficiencies and that unless we do something about this the world that we currently know will become a very different place for our children.
Chater Junior School’s vision is to develop our sustainable literacy in a way that inspires and empowers environmental awareness amongst the whole school community, working towards the commitment to be net-zero in 2030, in order to create a more sustainable future for our children.
Please see our Climate Action Plan for further information.

🌿 Eco Warriors in Action: Serge Hill Project Visit 🌿
On Thursday 16th October, our Eco Warriors embarked on an inspiring visit to the Serge Hill Project in Abbots Langley, home to over 2,000 plant species. Accompanied by Mrs Khindey and Mrs Wylie, the group explored nature’s wonders and deepened their understanding of environmental stewardship.
Rachel, the Educational Events Coordinator, ignited our passion for protecting the planet through hands-on activities including a Bio Blitz, Making a Bug Snug, and walking an edible trail. The experience empowered our Exo Warriors with practical knowledge and fresh ideas to support sustainability at school.
The Eco Warriors will be busy translating their learning into real action—developing sustainability plans and leading initiatives to help our school care for the environment. As part of our OPAL lunchtime programme, they’ll be teaming up with Mrs Wylie to lead the Making a Bug Snug activity. Watch this space for updates!
