Small steps can add up to big changes. So let’s all learn to reduce our ecological footprint and help maximise our earth’s precious resources.
During this workshop we discuss a range of green issues in the home, at school, and in a global context. With the aid of an interactive presentation, we visit an award-winning building, the Earthship, which is powered by renewable energy and is built from recycled materials.
After exploring some of the key issues involved, we examine a range of a diverse range of recycled and up-cycled objects and materials from around the world. We then get hands on and make a visually unique up-cycled notebook from old maps recycled paper and card.
This workshop lasts from 45 minutes to an hour with up to 35 / 70 pupils in each session. At the end of the session everyone will take a notebook home to enjoy.
This workshop is also available as an online option. Please get in touch for further details.
