Our projects

In March 2025, eight primary schools took part in a Green Dragon’s Den event, pitching ideas to a panel of ‘dragons’ for projects that cut emissions and improve their schools. Supported projects included a Fashion Show and Clothes Swap at Brookfield Primary and a green fence at Brecknock Primary to improve air quality.

CCA businesses, including Anthesis, Revolt, and Troup Bywaters + Anders, contributed £2,700 in prize money to bring the projects to life.

Urban Partners and Google provided more than £7,000 to sponsor a student event hosted at Samsung KX in May 2022 for more than 70 students across years 7 to 11.

Students were able to connect with their peers from other schools for an educational afternoon, to learn from experts on topics linked to the Camden School Climate Charter and how they could support their schools meet their charter commitments. Students were tasked with designing their own assemblies to deliver in their schools and disseminate what they had learnt from the event.

Camden Climate Alliance member Gentrack, with support from Think & Do, installed a pond at Camden School for Girls.

In the Autumn of 2025, with the help of 25 volunteers, an underused area was transformed into a vibrant blue space to support biodiversity and enhance wellbeing.

The school can now enjoy the space, and staff aim to incorporate learnings from the project into the curriculum.

Troup Bywaters helped UCS students with their rewilding ambitions by providing 400 hedgerow whips to continue greening efforts on site. Students planted the hedgerow in the Autumn of 2022, as well as wildflower meadow seeds to complete the rewilding project that they designed.

The project supports UCS’s wider ambitions for attracting more biodiversity to the school site, as students prepare to look after 2 beehives and continue to learn the important role that bees play in the eco-system.
