The Eco-committee at South Molton Community Primary School are 'very proud' to announce that they achieved a green flag with distinction this year.

This award took into account all the fantastic work they have been doing to help the school become more sustainable and develop nature in the school grounds.

This is a particularly important subject to the children at South Molton Community, as the school's values are based around nature.

Headteacher Tom Parkin said: "The children and school community have completed a huge variety of tasks this year including creating a wildflower meadow, planting trees, creating 'wild areas', installing bird boxes and holding regular 'no electricity days'.

"We already have huge plans for the next academic year and can't wait to get started on them in September.

"A huge thank you to all the eco-committee for giving up their time over the last year, what a fantastic job they have done!"
