Recycling Day

02.03.2022

On Wednesday 2nd March, we held our first Recycling Day as part of our One Planet Living initiative and work towards the Eco Schools Award. Everyone was encouraged to collect cardboard, clothing, metal cans, plastic and even unwanted flower and vegetable seeds ready for a fun day of recycling activities.
