Eco Club

St Dominic's Eco Club

St Dominic's Eco Club is a dedicated team comprised of students from every year group. The Eco Committee was set up last year, with representation from all year groups, the Committee meets regularly to discuss relevant environmental issues and plan new initiatives. This year we developed our Eco code, consulting the student body for their opinions on what they view important. Students had the opportunity to take part in many events and competitions including: Climate Action school's video (British Council) which we won, Junk Kouture fashion, where we were a Northern Region finalist. Students have entered other competitions including 'Young Reporter for the Environment' and international competition ran by Eco Schools, Persil's 'Dirt is Good' campaign, where the students designed a bug hotel which was made a reality with help from Belfast City Council. Students also went on various trips including to: Belfast Climate Comission Conference, Ulster Museum, and Colin Glen where they had a chance to look at biodiversity issues. Students have worked with a variety of organisations including Eco Schools, (Fast Fashion Workshop), Belfast City Council (Tree planting in Falls Park) and Belfast Hills Partnership (planting wildflowers in school grounds). If you love your environment, wildlife, getting outdoors and taking action to help our planet then Eco is the Club for you! We meet every Wed after school in Technology 1.
