The Global Gang and Miss Davies are committed to working hard again this year to achieve the next Eco school award, and have lots planned to help the community and look at ways to reduce the schools carbon footprint.
As a group 2024/25 was a successful school year. Along with The Worship Squad they planned and created a biodiversity area within the school grounds complete with a fully functional "Bug Hotel" and "No Mow Area" Our biodiversity area will help children explore how living things depend on each other in the ecosystem. They’ll discover which mini beasts have made our school their home, learn how to care for them, and understand why bees are important for plants, food, and the planet. By helping to attract more bees, the children will be making a real difference to nature!
This year Global Gang have hit the ground running, they've displayed the Global Gang logo on all light switches around school to encourage the staff, pupils and visitors to reduce the schools carbon footprint, by turning off lights, power sources etc. They have also successfully launched a whole school "Keep our Community tidy" poster competition to encourage the community to stop littering. With the support of The Cwmbach Community Association and Trivallis, the winning designs will be proudly showcased on banners and durable metal signs placed on lampposts throughout our community, helping to spread the message and creativity of our pupils far and wide.
A huge well done to all of you for achieving both the Bronze and Silver Eco‑Schools Awards! Your hard work, and commitment to protecting our planet have truly made a difference in our school. You’ve shown fantastic teamwork, and a real determination to make our school greener, cleaner, and more sustainable. From reducing waste to encouraging biodiversity, you have been true eco‑champions. We are incredibly proud of everything you’ve achieved so far and this is only the beginning. Keep leading the way to a brighter, greener future.
Next step our first ECO Green flag,
Congratulations, Global Gang you’ve earned it.

The Global Gang, have been working hard on an exciting project — building a brand‑new "Bug Hotel" for our bio diversity area. They used lots of natural materials like sticks, bricks, pine cones and leaves, they created cosy spaces for insects to shelter and stay safe. They showed great teamwork and problem solving as they designed each section, thinking carefully about which mini‑beasts might move in. This project is part of their mission to make our school greener, wilder and more eco‑friendly.
Well done to The Global Gang, helping nature, one tiny creature at a time!
