Asquith pupils learn to recycle like the experts
The children visited the viewing area to see how the job is done.
They then took part in a team competition to apply their new knowledge to a real-life situation, sorting out the items that can be recycled in Mansfield and ended with a waste quiz to see what they had learned.

“Our eco group and school council should now be our experts to help the rest of school do better.
“We hope they will also take the message home to help their families recycle at home.”
