Green Up Your Act

Over the past ten years we have worked with hundreds of different schools and colleges across the UK.

Green Up Your Act brings environmental issues to life through stimulating discussions, engaging presentations and creative workshops for both primary and secondary education. We are passionate about all things sustainable: recycling, up-cycling, global/local biodiversity, endangered species & their habitats and the growing of seasonal food.

Earthship buildings promote a more sustainable, low-impact lifestyle through energy efficiency, water conservation, waste reduction, and renewable energy use, all of which contribute to mitigating the effects of climate change.

The primary goals of repair cafΓ©s are to reduce waste, promote sustainability, share knowledge, and foster community engagement. πŸͺ›πŸ”§β™»οΈ

Year 7 students had a fantastic session’s with Philip discussing and learning about recycling and reusing everyday materials. They were intrigued with the items that Philip brought in and had many questions. Their favourite part of the session no doubt was making their pocket notebooks. They didn't quite realise what was being made until the last stage, at which point the collective gasps said it all.

An informative and engaging session with brilliant visuals and videos to support. We will definitely be looking to book sessions in the future as Philip offers a great range of topics which tie in to our Key Stage 3 & 4 curriculums brilliantly. β™»οΈπŸŒŸπŸ”­

Our eco-committee have been working with Philip Hunton from Green Up Your Act. Pupils were made aware of the importance of recycling & the amazing things that can be made from a range of materials, the importance of looking after our eco-systems & also how to grow micro greens. β™»οΈπŸŒΏπŸΈ

Harvest rocket seed just before it goes nut brown and let it continue to dry indoors. Collect the seed heads in a paper bag. After a week or two, with a little shaking, the seeds will fall away. They need to be perfectly dry before storing in an airtight container. πŸͺ΄πŸŒΏπŸ

Online workshops - Thank you so much for the wonderful year 7 workshops yesterday. The pupils were in awe of the work that you do and engaged in some excellent conversations post workshop. I even had a pupil inform me this morning they had made 8 notebooks using recycled paper from around their house. We appreciate all the hard work that must have gone into this. It was a lovely conclusion to such an important Scheme of Work. ♻️ ♻️ ♻️ ♻️
