A tiny school where children tell on teachers for leaving the lights on has been named the most eco-friendly in the country.

Polesden Lacey Infant School, which has just 90 pupils, beat more than 780 schools across the country to win the coveted environmental award.

The kids, all aged four to seven, scooped the prize by making a greenhouse from plastic bottles, building a vegetable garden – and challenging teachers and inspectors who waste energy.

“The entire school community has a strong sense of purpose and teamwork and there is a sense of pride at what has been achieved.”

The children are also encouraged to take their eco-warrior mentality home with them – and they’ve written to political bigwigs including Theresa May, David Cameron, Jeremy Hunt and even The Queen about world issues.

Rosie added: “One parent once said, with a wry smile, it was like living with the eco police.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
