As part of our learning about the community and the environment in PSHE, we asked families to collect empty, washed plastic bottles over the coming weeks and half term, and bring them into school ready for Friday 13th November. We hoped to collect enough bottles to give our pupils a real visual understanding of just how much plastic waste we generate and how we can reduce, reuse and recycle it. We then put those bottles to good use through some fun and creative activities and games!
On the day, pupils were invited to wear something green or Pudsey-related to join in the fun. Our normal lessons and timetable remained unchanged, with all Children in Need activities taking place during our usual Enrichment time, ensuring there was no disruption to learning.
