Following Seka Elementary School's lead in participating in activities linked to
Reduce, Reuse and Recycle,
Chopwell Primary School planned one of their Creative Curriculum Units around this theme.
The challenge was on and classes were competitive!
The brief was that each class needed to create goods to be sold at the Summer Fair to raise money for the Tohoku Appeal. However, all of the goods had to be made by reusing/recycling, therefore reducing the need for new materials.
Look at the Power Point showing what we got up to. Who knew that recycling could be so much fun?!

Our Japanese friends had sent us some special bottle top art kits. We frantically started to collect used bottle tops so that we could have a go at creating pieces of art. We collected so many bottle tops that each class created a large scale bottle art!
