Buckland Primary School
12 March 2014
We ran two successful workshops with Year 3 Doves and Kestrels at Buckland Primary School, Staines. Both classes were very enthusiastic and created some beautiful artwork to demonstrate how plastic pollution affects marine life. Below are the poems some of the children wrote as follow on work after we left.
Recycle, reuse, reduce
Enjoy recycling so don’t drop it so sea animals don’t get stuck in it
Coke cans, lemonade cans and bottles can be recycled so don’t drop them in the sea
You can recycle in bins
Cardboard can be recycled
Like recycling
Enjoy recycling
Natasha, Year 3 Doves
I’m just a poor turtle
Why are you doing this to me?
It’s not fair now I’m not a pair,
Stop throwing bags into the sea
Your killing, hurting and destroying me!
I’m just a poor turtle
With all your plastic bags I’m getting tangled,
And soon I will get strangled.
I’m just a poor turtle.
You are being so rude
Stop throwing things in my food.
I’m just a poor turtle.
This is not fair,
I’m just a poor turtle.
I’m just a poor turtle.
Ethan & Hana, Year 3 Kestrels
Reduce, reuse, recycle.
Eco friendly people protect the environment.
Can people stop throwing things in the street.
You need to help.
Care about animals
Listen.
If litter is dropped recycle it.
No litter on the streets.
Get involved.
Adriano, Year 3 Doves
