Waste to Wonder Creative Schools Project 2024

This year we have had the pleasure of working with KS2 children from 3 local primary schools – Much Marcle, Ledbury & Mordiford.

Children from Mordiford Primary School joined us for a whole day of Earth Education which included learning about climate change, food miles, ‘refraining, reducing & recycling’, they took part in The Great Egg Race, inspected the rubbish produced from their lunch boxes and drummed on junk percussion & made kazoos with the amazing Bym from Beat Bang Bong.

On top of this, all 3 schools have helped us to create some incredible recycled decor for our Waste Hub at this years festival. Children have created beautiful flowers from plastic bottles and theatrical Totums from tin cans and recyclable vinyl. The flowers will adorn the Waste area – creating a plastic garden to bring the Waste Hub to life. The Totums will dramatically tower with messages from the children about how to save our planet and create less rubbish!
