TES is an Eco-school 

As an Eco-school, we have an Eco-Committee made up of students from S1to S7 which aims to make TES a more sustainable school. As this is a student-led project, the students oversee taking initiative and leading the activities in school with the support of Kenty Dubois (Eco-school coordinator, Humanities teacher) , Carl Frauenstein (parent). Additionally, Liis Teras (Activity Manager) and Ana Ichim (Erasmus Coordinator) are helping with the Erasmus cooperation. 

The Eco-Committee follows the 7 steps of the Eco-school  

We work on the following topics: marine life and coast, food, and transport. Our previous topics were food waste, waste reduction, and climate change. 

We chose our topics based on a survey that we have sent to all students. Additionally, we chose “marine life and coast” as we have currently an Erasmus project on the Baltic Sea with the European Schools of Copenhagen and Helsinki. 

Our activities can be connected to curriculum teaching as well as with the broader life of the school (TES events, canteen, recess, hallways, trips).
