Assemblies
Introduction to Waste: Get the 3Rs message across to the whole school (or a year group) in one go. A PowerPoint presentation shows students what happens to their rubbish currently and the problems it causes. We look at how everyone should be reducing, re-using and recycling instead.
Save Our Trees!: Secondary schools go through tonnes of paper every year. Students find out the environmental impacts of making all this paper and how much damage could be prevented if recycled paper were used instead. This assembly includes pupil participation!
Power Down!: Electricity is a vital part of modern life but most of it is generated from fossil fuels. Students learn about the problems associated with fossil fuels and what they can do at home to be more energy efficient.
One Planet Living: If everyone in the world lived as we do in the UK we would need 3 planets! This assembly uses a chocolate bar to demonstrate the meaning of “fair share”. Students find out how people in developed countries are depleting resources by taking more than their fair share and how this means that others will go without. Students are shown ways to be more sustainable and achieve “one planet living”. This assembly includes pupil participation!
Assemblies last 10-30 minutes depending on the time available.
