Recycling workshops
The children loved the plastic talk provided by Sandra from the Milton Keynes City Council who was very well informed about not just Milton Keynes' recycling processes but the global impact of plastic pollution. All questions were considered, the children have fed back that they felt heard and that they were given valid answers.
Sandra also handed out four different sample pots which contained varieties of shredded and recycled plastics which intrigued the children. Overall, the children thoroughly enjoyed this talk and were able to have impactful conversations surrounding the topics.
