Teachers feedback
Young Climate Warriors is a great way to carry on conversations begun in class at home
Each weekly topic and challenge provides information, engenders discussion, offers thought-provoking questions and suggests optional actions
Young Climate Warriors challenges are for children to undertake at home, so their parent/carer will need to be involved
Our award-winning Climate Change Club in a Box resources provide a comprehensive introduction to climate change, allowing pupils to delve down deeper.
(All ‘suggested challenges’ must be undertaken with the supervision and at the discretion of a responsible adult.)
