SustFest Schools Week 2023
From 12th to 16th June 2023, our annual SustFest Schools Week will give schools and youth groups in St Albans, Harpenden and the villages a chance to get involved with the the St Albans District Sustainability Festival (SustFest). From a full week of eco activities involving every student, to a short activity for the eco group, your school is welcome to plan activities that suit you best. All we ask is that you tell us you are joining in!

We send a termly, or twice-termly, e-newsletter to the majority of the District’s Schools. If you would like your school / eco-representative / PTA to receive our newsletter, please register here. Not sure if our newsletters are for you? Click here to see previous Sustainable Schools newsletters.
