We are proud to say that Rushden Academy is a Green Flag Eco School.

We have a committee of over 20 ecologically friendly and determined students who want to make, not only our school, but our local community greener.

Over the past 15 months we have focussed on three main issues:

Waste: we have recycled plastic bottles, crisp packets, clothes, introduced compost bins and reduced energy use.

Litter: we have introduced recycling bins, and supported anti-littering policies. 

Biodiversity: we fundraised to purchase bird feeders, nest boxes, tables, and seeds for our large flower beds.

From September we will as a committee look to improve 2 more areas of our environmental impact.
