Get your Arty Act together! PowerPoint created by Poppy and Thea as part of the Eco Committee

The Eco Committee has come together and decided that the waste in our school could be improved, and hopefully with the help of you it will!

Our Aims… One of our biggest goals is to reduce all waste in our packed lunches, so that we are one step closer to becoming a zero waste school!

About the competition… All you need to do is create a leaflet that incorporates the theme of a zero waste school. Inside your leaflet we will put 7 tips and tricks on how to reduce the waste in your packed lunches, but we are hoping you can come up with 3 of your own. Once you have finished your leaflet remember to give it to a member of the Eco Committee in primary 7, or Mrs Edwards. Remember we have the green badges!

Make sure your leaflet has dos and don’ts…example Don`t Do Don`t bring cartons of juice! (they’re bad for the environment) Bring reusable water bottles!

Inside your leaflet you should have ten top tips on how to reduce waste in your packed lunches.Inside your leaflet you should have ten top tips on how to reduce waste in your packed lunches.
