Nude Food Wednesday

Nude Food Wednesday’s are back! 

Please help your child pack a lunchbox that has no single use plastic on Wednesdays for the remainder of the year. Consider substituting Glad Wrap or Ziplock bags to reusable containers or beeswax wraps. Your child will receive a point to go towards their class total. At the end of Term 3 and Term 4 there will be prize for the top class who brought in the most nude food lunches! 

Why go nude? 

Here are some shocking facts about plastic pollution:

• It can take hundreds of years for one plastic zip lock bag to decompose. 
• Plastic seriously harms ocean wildlife, each year causing many to die as a result of digesting plastic pollution. 
• 2 million plastic bags are used every minute worldwide.  
• The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is 607763 square miles long, and continues to grow harming marine wildlife. 

Let’s work together to help Cheltenham Primary reduce waste and protect our environment. Thank you for your support in helping us make a positive impact!
