Single-Use Plastic Swim at SCS

Posted on October 11th, 2023.

At SCS, our Year 6 students have been learning about how humans can impact our environment. In particular, we have been focusing on the effects that plastic has on our oceans. In class, we have been busy researching the garbage patches in our oceans and monitoring the amount of waste plastic each class is producing.

As part of our learning, our teachers filled our swimming pool with lots of single use plastic items. We then had to imagine what it is like for sea creatures whose homes are polluted!
