Eco Team Launch Plastic Recycling Scheme

Our fantastic Eco Team have been busy taking action! This week they led a whole-school assembly all about plastic pollution — what it is, why it’s harmful to our natural world and wildlife, and most importantly, what we can all do to help.

They encouraged everyone to question their rubbish — Can it be recycled? Can it go in one of our school recycling bins? Why does recycling really matter?

We’re excited to share that they have now launched the Warburtons Bakery Free Recycling Programme in partnership with TerraCycle. Families are invited to bring in clean bakery packaging which we will collect and send off to be recycled, helping to reduce plastic waste.

We are so proud of the confidence and leadership our Eco Team showed in collective worship — true ambassadors for positive change.

As they reminded us all - Reduce! Reuse! Recycle!
