Today we were visited by Jen from Let's Go Zero to look at how we can further reduce our carbon footprint across school. Jen met with our Eco Commitee to explore their ideas around how we can improve. ♻️ #findingthelight #flourishingcommunities @stchris_trust— St. Sidwell's C of E (@stsidwellsce) Sep 24, 2025

A school where everyone is treated with kindness and a place where there are high expectations for behaviour and academic achievement! Delighted with the ofsted report for @AllSaintsCofE which means all 19 schools in the Trust for 3+years have good inspection grades! pic.twitter.com/Me4g57pojS— St Christopher’s Trust (@stchris_trust) September 16, 2025
