Bracknell Forest Council has offered its congratulations to Warfield CE Primary School for receiving the Eco Rewards major achievement award.

The school has demonstrated exceptional performance in promoting greener travel by totalling 1.2million Eco Reward points which are the equivalent of 13,409 green miles and saving 4.2 tonnes of CO2e!

A new School of the Year competition has been launched for 2024, with winners being recognised for their improvement in active travel.

Eco Rewards offers rewards and incentives for schools, businesses and communities to encourage residents and students to choose greener travel, healthy lifestyle options and reduce their carbon footprint.

Collectively, participants could save £100ks per annum on fuel costs and reduce CO2 emissions by 1000s tonnes.

Walking, cycling and green travel can be reported using their App and scanning a QR code or by self-reporting.

League tables, prize draws, medals, and carbon savings calculator can also be used to keep motivation high.
