Educational activities

Inspire young learners with fun, hands-on recycling activities designed for schools

Educational recycling activities for young children and teenagers

As climate change and the waste crisis continues to impact our lives, we believe that education is key. Introducing children and young adults to these topics from an early age will help to drive positive change and ensure a better future.

We want to make learning fun, but also highlight important topics. Our educational activities and resources cover areas such as sustainability, recycling, and reuse, and are suitable for 4 to 16 year olds.

Activities are split into the following age ranges:

  • Ages 4 – 11 (KS1 and KS2 England, Wales and Northern Ireland) (Scotland P1-P7)
  • Ages 11 – 16 (KS3 and KS4 England, Wales, and Northern Ireland) (Scotland S1-S3)

We recommend that children wishing to carry out these activities at home should be supervised by an adult. Print these out and take them to school to show your teacher, or get your mum and dad involved!

Please let us know what steps you are taking to recycle more. We would love to hear about any environmental projects you have completed and the changes you are making at home or in school to reduce your impact on the environment.
