Thank you from the Eco Champions
At the end of last half term,eco-champions took a tour of the hall during lunch time. They were very happy to see so many single-use plastic free lunches. They took photos of some which had been enjoyed!
Some good ideas which they saw being put into practice were:
- Putting yogurt from a large pot into a reusable pot instead of buying lots of small packets or yogurt tubes.
- Packing a piece of cheese instead of cheeses strings or babybel.
- Packing fresh fruit instead of fruit winders or fruit bars.
- Putting sandwiches into a reusable container instead of wrapping them in clingfilm.
- Using a clever box with different compartments.
We noticed that there could be some unfairness in the eco-points scores as KS1 children were likely to have a school dinner more often. We will, therefore, do some calculating and work out the eco-point scores based on the average percentage of children from each class having school dinners.
We are very grateful that so many of you are packing plastic-free lunches and reducing waste.
Thank you!
