We’re thrilled to share some fantastic photos from Eco Club’s recent broadcasting experience on Wolverhampton Community Radio (WCRFM)! Our pupils truly did us proud, representing St. Edmund’s with confidence, passion, and a deep commitment to the environment. They tackled a range of questions on the spot, showcasing not only their knowledge but also their hope and determination to make a real difference in our world.

Tune in to hear the broadcast on Friday from 2-3 pm on 101.8 FM. If you miss it, don’t worry—it will be available on the WCRFM website for catch-up, and we’ll also receive a recording to share with everyone afterward.

A huge thank you to Paul Darke and WCRFM for this incredible opportunity. Let’s keep the momentum going and continue to make our voices heard!
