Sustainability at STAGS
At STAGS, sustainability forms a cornerstone of our values of improving the environment and taking care of the future, encompassed in our school motto, 'Nobis Cura Futura’, Ours is the Care of the Future'
We are committed to fostering sustainability through our Eco Council, where students actively engage in initiatives to reduce our environmental impact. We set high standards to encourage greener, more sustainable practices within our school community. By integrating sustainable habits into everyday life, we aim to inspire a future where students excel, thrive, and contribute to a healthier, more resilient world.
Students in every year group are actively involved in raising awareness and helping to reduce our school carbon footprint, minimise the amount of waste going to landfill, and encouraging sustainable use of resources across the school. Through regular Eco Council meetings, STAGS Bites, STAGS Talks, projects and activities, we are raising awareness of the importance and impact of our actions on our school, local and global environments.
