Just One Tree Day: Friday 24th October: Wear Something Green for One Tree Non-Uniform Day As part of our commitment to climate change, we will be supporting the organisation Just One Tree again this year.

Just One Tree is a non-profit organisation whose mission is removing CO2 from the atmosphere through global reforestation.

In the last 2 years, we have planted an amazing 350 trees in Madagascar. This supported local communities, encouraged biodiversity and is contributing toward the reduction of effects caused by climate change.

Why should we plant more trees?
• Trees absorb the pollutants we humans put into the atmosphere.
• They clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, prevent soil erosion and flooding, give life to the world’s wildlife, house complex ecosystems, supply us with medicine and provide jobs to over 1.6 billion people.
• They really are the superheroes of the planet and we need them in order to survive.

You can donate £1 or whatever you’d like to give, by clicking our school fundraising page which we will
share with you soon. For every pound donated, one tree will be planted.

Preparations are being made for the Barnet Lighthouses Window Trail linked to East Barnet Baptist Church. It’s a free community event which is taking place from 26th October – 1st November. The idea behind it is to encourage people to decorate a window in their home using the themes of love, light and hope. They would then leave a light on from 5.30-9.00pm each evening during the trail week, so that people passing by can admire their display. Register for this free event by 15th October to be  included in the trail map.
