8 May is Plastic-Free Day

To celebrate the 93rd birthday of Sir David Attenborough, we are joining lots of other schools tomorrow to take part in the ‘8th May Plastic-Free Day’.

To help pupils understand the impact of plastic on the environment, we are going to have a day of refusing single-use plastic. We will be learning about the issues surrounding plastic pollution and ocean health and how we can make a difference in our day to day lives by making more sustainable choices.

We hope that taking part in this day will help our children to learn about how we can reduce the amount of plastic pollution endangering our wildlife and environment, and to be extra vigilant about littering and choosing to avoid single-use plastic wherever possible. It is a day of making changes to our habits that hopefully will lead to more days of being aware of how simple switches to more environmentally friendly options can make a difference.

Thank you for your support!
