Nursery (ages 3-5yrs) | | |

It’s never too early! We have a small range of activities suitable for this young age group designed to introduce the idea that waste isn’t something to throw away and forget about. Nothing too strenuous, but lots of fun. Borrow the equipment complete with how-to guide, or book a member of the waste team to run the session for you. | ||
| ||
Might be Useful | ||
Follow the story of Stan as he collects objects to reuse from the Landfill site. “Can I have that? Might be useful” Borrow Stan’s big might be useful box of recycled musical instruments to sing recycling songs. | ||
The story of Stan comes as a laminated A3 story book and Stan’s “might be useful box” of around 30 recycled instruments with suggested recycling songs. | ||
| ||
Make your own recycled instruments | ||
After playing with the might be useful box, or as a stand alone activity, children will enjoy decorating pots filled with bottle tops, or beads to make exciting noises they can take home - parents will be thrilled! Use this activity to illustrate that every day objects have more than one use. | ||
| ||
Visit the landfill site | ||
We are able to host a walk around the landfill site to illustrate the size of waste on the Island! Children will enjoy seeing the birds of prey, large piles of compost, lorries going through the wheel wash and of course the landfill itself. | ||
