2009 Climate Change Calendar
Schools across the borough took part in a Council-run competition to design images for a 2009 climate change calendar.  The calendar aims to raise awareness of energy efficiency and sustainable living at school and at home. 

A total of 344 pieces of art work were submitted and there were some excellent entries which made the judging process very challenging.  The final entries for the calendar can be viewed below.  Each month of the calendar represents a different environmental theme related to climate change.  It will serve as a year round reminder for pupils and their families to continue to do their bit for the environment.
