After becoming the first school in Canada to achieve a carbon-zero footprint through the Canada’s Forest Trust – Smart Forest Program, SBS made the decision to work towards official EcoSchool certification with EcoSchools Canada. In 2023/24, we were awarded Gold Level Certification!
Our continued efforts are led by our “Green Team”, a leadership group composed of students, teachers and administrators. Grade 5 and 6 students have the opportunity to apply to join this group and help to to guide and deliver the campaigns and initiatives that will see us continue to advance our EcoSchools certification!
Special note: The students created a logo for the leadership team meant to signify the importance of taking care of our only planet, EARTH. We included 8 water drops to represent the 8 classes at SBS, as we all need to work together to make a difference.
