CREST Awards & BSA: Plastic FREE July!
To celebrate #PlasticFreeJuly, The British Science Association has shared a new blog about ways to get involved.
You can find tips on how to make everyday changes, there are links to school challenges and planet-friendly activities like The Big Plastic Count. You can discover more about The British Science Festival and (last but by no means least), there are CREST Awards!
CREST has so many fantastic projects, one of our favourites is the Plastics Challenge partner resource from Practical Action. Learners who complete the challenge can earn a CREST Discovery Award.
The activities are perfect for Plastic Free July and include sorting and identifying plastics, making plastic in the classroom, plastics and their environmental impact, recycling plastics and more!
