Plastic Free July – Make Your Own Bees Wax Wraps

Eco Sisters are Now Recycling Plastic Drink Bottles
During the coming weeks, our Eco Sisters co-curricular group are excited to be running a recycling collection for plastic PET bottles. If you have any plastic bottles at home please bring them in.
Why should we bother trying to make a difference?
Recently, a student asked me about why they should bother trying to make a difference. Why should they be the one to use less plastic, or recycle, or plant a tree?
Eco Sisters is about educating our students to be environmentally responsible.
