Postponed – Eco Conference at GMS

On Thursday March 26th, Great Marlow School is making headlines, because it is to host the town’s first ever Eco Conference. The school is preparing to an interactive,  educational day to be attended by students from 13 schools in town and the surrounding areas.

The aim of the conference is to inspire and motivate Marlow’s school children to work together to tackle local and global environmental challenges. During the day a number of keynote speakers, will inspire and educate from stands that will be interactive and have exercises to engage in.

Our Headmaster said,“Our future is in our children’s hands and we’re aiming to organise an event that they’ll remember for years to come and to inspire collaborative further action. Our children are growing up with environmental issues in the news and the classroom and their passion is astounding. We want to harness that by joining children of all ages in an atmosphere of true cooperation, that will make a difference.”

Topics to be discussed on the day will include, the all important climate change; the problem of waste, including litter and recycling;  flooding, air quality and sustainable eating.

One key objective of the event is for the student delegates to agree to five key action points that all schools can work on over the next 12 months.
