Recycle with Michael and The Salvation Army
As part of the ‘Great Big Green Week’ we launched on Monday, we have joined up with The Salvation Army. This is the 2nd time we have taken part in the Recycle with Michael project to help recycle unwanted clothes and shoes while making a little money for the school.

Turn your unloved clothes and shoes into cash for our school!
We wanted to let you know about an exciting new project we’re discussing with the children this week. Today, we’re announcing our involvement in a new campaign and competition which aims to raise much-needed funds for the school whilst helping others in our community. And we need your help.
Please see attached letter with all the details:
Letter-to-Parents Recycle with Michael
We have about 50 bags available, ready to be filled with your unwanted clothes and shoes. If you would like a bag please as your class teacher and one will be provided – it is on a first-come basis as we only have 50.
It couldn’t be easier to get involved. Simply:
-
Fill the bags with your unwanted clothes and shoes (no bric-a-brac please). If you need more bags please ask at Reception.
-
Return the bags containing your unwanted items on 23rd June and leave them at the hall door which will be open at 8:30 am.
-
The Salvation Army will collect the bags and the money raised from the items will be shared with the school. The more bags we fill – the more cash we raise! If you’re having a clear out, remember Recycle with Michael, and donate to a great cause.
Did you know facts about recycling:
-
30% of our unwanted clothing currently goes to landfill.
-
50,000 tonnes, that’s around £140 million worth of used but still wearable clothing goes to landfill in the UK every year
-
Clothes can take up to 40 years to decompose
-
Shoes can take up to 1,000 years to break down.
-
Textiles can be repurposed into a number of things including sports fields, pillow stuffing, and paper money.
thank you for your continued support.
