Children’s University – June Challenge!

JUNE CHALLENGE – RECYCLE/UPCYCLE SOMETHING PLASTIC INTO SOMETHING NEW!

To coincide with World Environment Day – Your challenge for the month of June is to re-purpose any plastic household items into something completely new! You might create a pencil pot, a wind chime, a bird feeder, a herb planter, or an outdoor sprinkler…..your options are endless! Use your imagination to come up with something useful and creative.

Remember we always love seeing you show off your amazing work on our CUA Facebook Page! Also, check out our CUA Pinterest page for lots of awesome recycling/upcycyling ideas and step-by-step guides.

Take your creation or evidence such as photos to your in-school CUA coordinator – time allocated for the challenge will be at the discretion of the coordinator.
