Pupils rap about recycling with Recycler the Robot
Recycler the rapping robot is this week touring Warwickshire schools to spread the word about recycling.
He began his tour on Monday and will continue until Friday, where Recycler will be bringing recycling to life at local primary schools through his funky interactive show.
The show tells pupils and teachers all about the three Rs: reduce, reuse and recycle and yes, the robot really will perform a toe-tapping rap. Throughout the performance, Recycler shows children how they can reduce their waste, how they can recycle locally, and put the three Rs into practice at home and school.
Shirley Barre, Education Officer, said: "Every household in the UK throws away over one tonne of waste each year and more than half of this could be recycled. A visit from Recycler is a great way for young people to learn about how important it is to reduce waste and to recycle as much as possible, at home and at school.
"Joining in with Recycler’s rap and watching the games, props and role-plays is a great way to remember important messages and take them home.”
The Recycler programme is being run in Warwickshire by Waste Watch in partnership with Warwickshire County Council.
