LAUDATO SI

LAUDATO SI

Laudato Si'

‘Laudato Si’, the second encyclical of Pope Francis, invites us to protect God's creation for future generations. It asks us to embrace lifestyle changes for our own good as well as to take care of people who are poor and are more vulnerable. Pope Francis calls for all people of the world to take swift and unified global action. 


Why do we have a Laudato Si' group?

 

-To ensure our school is eco-friendly and to prepare children to live with reflection of the environment

-To make sure all children have a voice to raise an issue

-To discuss and raise issues related to the environment


It deals with many environmental issues including:

  • pollution
  • climate change
  • water
  • loss of biodiversity
  • decline in the quality of human life.

Pope Francis implores us to work together to create a better world for future generations and asks us to make the necessary changes in our lives in order to take care of, respect and value our ‘common home’.

'Let us protect with love all that God has given us!'


Laudato Si Action Plan

Laudato Si tackling consumerism

Our Laudato Si group have a mission to tackle consumerism. They worked increcinly hard to arrange for a book swap using pre-loved books from our school community for World Book Day.

"When we feel empty inside, we might think that buying lots of things will make us happy. But real happiness comes from love, sharing, and caring for others—not from having more stuff."

Pope Francis

Recycling week

The Laudato Si team worked hard to raise awareness about recycling during our Recycling Week. They led a very informative assembly that helped everyone understand the importance of caring for our planet by reducing waste and recycling properly. The children learned valuable ways to make a difference and were inspired to take action in their homes and around the school. As Pope Francis reminds us,

“The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth.”

Let’s all do our part to protect and cherish God’s creation!

Litter Picking in the community

The Laudato Si team took the lead in organising a community litter pick to help keep our local area clean and beautiful. Their hard work showed how much we can all do to care for God’s creation and make our environment a better place for everyone. By coming together to protect the earth, they lived out the message that we are all responsible stewards of the world around us. As the Bible says,

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.” (Psalm 24:1)

The big litter pick

The Laudato Si team supported the school by organising a big litter pick around the school grounds and in the local community. Their efforts helped raise important awareness about litter and recycling, encouraging our younger pupils to make cleaner, greener choices every day. By working together to care for our environment, they showed how small actions can make a big difference. As the Bible reminds us,

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.” (Psalm 24:1)

Let’s continue to protect and cherish our world!

Allotment

The Laudato Si team have been busy caring for our school allotment by cleaning it up and planting beautiful seasonal flowers. Their hard work helps create a vibrant and welcoming space for everyone to enjoy, while also showing respect for God’s creation. Through their actions, they remind us all of the importance of nurturing the world around us. As the Bible says,

“The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.” (Genesis 2:15)

Seed bombs

Members of the Laudato Si team enjoyed supporting the children in EYFS as they planted their handmade seed bombs. These special seed bombs were created to help support our local wildlife, especially bees, by growing flowers that provide food and shelter. It was a wonderful opportunity for the younger children to learn about caring for God’s creation in a hands-on way. As it says in the Bible,

“Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit.” (Genesis 1:11)

Together, we are helping nature to thrive.
