Welcome to Our Eco-Friendly School at PEPPS!
At PEPPS, we take pride in our commitment to environmental sustainability. Our Eco initiatives are at the heart of our mission, fostering a culture of responsibility and care for the world around us. We subscribe to the United Nations philosophy and vision for humanity, as espoused in the Sustainable Development Goals. Explore the various eco-friendly activities that make PEPPS a shining example of environmental stewardship.
ECO Bricks: Building a Sustainable Future
One of our flagship projects is the creation of Eco Bricks. Students and staff actively participate in collecting non-recyclable waste and compacting it into plastic bottles, creating Eco Bricks that contribute to sustainable construction projects. This innovative approach not only reduces waste but also instils a sense of responsibility in our PEPPS community.
Paper Recycling: Reducing our Carbon Footprint
We believe in the power of recycling, and our commitment extends to paper. Our
dedicated recycling program ensures that paper waste is transformed into valuable
resources. By recycling paper, we contribute to the conservation of trees and
promote a circular economy within our PEPPS community.
Eco Club: Nurturing Environmental Leaders
Our Eco Club is a dynamic hub for environmental enthusiasts. While details about the club’s activities are continually evolving, rest assured that it provides a platform for students to engage in eco-conscious initiatives, educational projects, and
collaborative efforts aimed at making a positive impact on our environment. Each of our campuses has an Eco Committee that is committed to making this a reality.
Litter Pick-Ups: Keeping Our Campuses Clean
We actively organize litter pick-ups throughout the year, encouraging students to take an active role in maintaining the cleanliness of our PEPPS school grounds. These events not only contribute to a clean and pleasant environment but also teach valuable lessons about responsible waste disposal and the importance of community involvement.
Join Us in Going Green!
As a school community, we invite everyone at PEPPS to participate in our eco-friendly initiatives. Whether it’s joining the Eco Club, participating in litter pick-ups, or contributing to our ECO Brick project, every action counts. Together, we can create a more sustainable future for our PEPPS school and beyond.
