Children and young people are powerful ambassadors for nature and climate and this 7–15 June, schools across the UK will show what’s possible when we swap together for good.

From turning unloved corners of the playground into wildlife havens to running book or uniform swaps, planting pollinator-friendly gardens or sharing skills with older generations, every action counts.

By taking part in Great Big Green Week, your school becomes part of a hopeful, growing movement for change — showing that practical, positive action is already happening in every community.

Whether you’re a class, a year group or the whole school, you can help shape a greener, fairer future. And you’ll show decision-makers that protecting our planet is something we’re proud to pass on.
