Ocean Love no plastic no waste
school program

Inspiring the Next Generation for a Cleaner Ocean

We believe in empowering young minds to create lasting change for our planet. Our Ocean Love NO Plastic NO Waste program is specifically crafted to inspire students to become environmental champions through interactive, hands-on learning and creative upcycling experiences. By bringing awareness to the impact of plastic pollution and the 4 Rs: REFUSE, REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE, we nurture a sense of responsibility and innovation in every participant.

The school program unfolds over four engaging sessions designed to maximise learning and impact:

WISH Intern J'herdine speaks with a class of students at the Newfield Primary School
Session 1: Guest Lecture

Students kick off their journey with an eye-opening presentation about the problem of plastic pollution and the importance of the 4 Rs – Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. This session sets the foundation for understanding, and students begin collecting bottle caps for future projects.

Session 2: Assignment

Students are encouraged to think critically and creatively, presenting their own ideas and solutions to reduce plastic waste within their communities. This fosters leadership and problem-solving skills.

Students participate in a hands-on workshop where they learn to upcycle collected plastic bottle caps into useful products. This immersive experience demonstrates how waste can be transformed into new valuable products.

SESSION 4: Bench Donation & Pledge Ceremony

As a symbol of commitment, each participating school receives a bench made from waste bottle caps. During the Ocean Lovers Pledge Ceremony, students vow to continue their efforts against plastic pollution, joining a growing movement of ocean protectors.
