Year 4 pupils encourage others to “Ban Single Use Plastic”

07 Dec Year 4 pupils encourage others to “Ban Single Use Plastic”

Y4 children have been quite concerned about plastic pollution and the use of single-use plastic in school.  They conducted their own research into how they could help prevent lots of plastic going into our bins and then land-fills and unfortunately sometimes into our oceans.

Some of the children then made speeches which was then presented in assembly to the KS2 children asking them to “Ban Single Use Plastic” and to use refillable water bottles instead. They would like the whole school to stop unnecessary use of plastic.  So, they asked the children not to buy drinks in the morning and throw them in the bin but to buy a reusable bottle and reuse it every day.
