Level 3 Act
Since we embarked on our journey we have seen less single use plastics at our school. It is our mission to be kind to each other and to our planet. We have worked together to phase out harmful and unnecessary plastic. We are more mindful and make a conscious effort to re-use and recycle.
Walk around the Block – Plastic Clever School Campaign
To shout it out and promote ‘Less Plastic is Fantastic’ and ‘Save our Seas, Save our Planet’ our whole school took part in the Plastic Clever Campaign from Nursery who learned all about reusing and recycling through a variety of fun activities, Reception who learned about taking care of our environment and dangers of plastic to KS1 and KS2 who created banners, signs and posters then embarked on a walk around the block to spread the word and inspire our neighbours and local community to go on the same journey we have and phase out single use plastics for good!
We have linked our learning to our Science and PSHE subjects especially as we learned about sustainability and taking care of our environment. We planned the walk as a celebration of World Ocean Day 2024. Some of the year groups researched and found out about the dangers and devastating effects of plastic on our oceans.
The children enjoyed setting off chanting the slogans such as ‘Don’t drop litter, put it in the bin’, ‘Litter Less’, ‘Save our Planet’, ‘Recycle and Re-use’. They loved being part of something so big. They loved that they are part of the solution, of making a positive difference. It was a great day! We took action and we did it together as one!
Revealing our school action plan…
Our School Council presented our school action plan to KS2 classes and our EYFS and KS1 Teachers revealed the plan to EYFS and KS1 pupils.
The whole school is now aware of what our problem plastics are and what we aim to do to phase them out!
we all agree that less plastic is fantastic.
Plastic Clever School Action Plan
Our School Council gathered ideas from different classes regarding our main problem plastics and how we can reduce it.
Plastic Audit Results
Our main problem plastics are sandwiches in plastic, glue sticks, plastic pens and plastic whiteboard pens.
Reasons why we strive to become a Plastic Clever School.
Together we can go further and achieve more in our quest to beat plastic pollution and save our planet.
