Waste Week Is Underway!

After our ‘Clean for the Queen’ to celebrate her 90th birthday, the children throughout the school managed to fill a skip full of litter and rubbish collected from around the school grounds and the neighbouring  area.

Meanwhile, this years Eco-Committee dug up the results of last years committee’s landfill experiment. They had buried a wide range of materials to see what happened to them over the year as if they were in a landfill. We discovered why some of the materials in rubbish we found can be such a problem even after a year!

On Wednesday, the whole school will be involved in Waste Day, when we will be looking at ways to tackle waste, how we can reduce, reuse or recycle instead. Hopefully with lots of interesting activities to help us learn and remember.
