What to know how to make an eco-town and clothes from recycled materials?

Just ask pupils at Stelling Minnis Primary School.

They enjoyed an eco-awareness fun day led by author Ellie Wharton, who writes children’s stories with an environmental theme and has set up a company called Green Dreams Workshops.

Ellie read the children her book Michael Recycle, before they created a model of an eco-town, and made superhero costumes out of recycled materials.

School head John Gray said: “It was a really enjoyable day and the message clearly came across.”
