Sara Hopkins, community liaison manager at the academy, said: “We are really pleased to be hosting the EYE Project eco summit.

“Our local primary schools take their eco responsibilities very seriously and this is a wonderful way to celebrate the work the children have already done and to introduce them to key people and organisations in the wider community who share the same passion.”

Members of the The Southern Co-operative, a band of organisations ranging from Sussex Wildlife Trust, The Body Shop and Southern Water will be leading the workshops.
