Christmas Decorations from Recycled Materials Competition 2024

4th Dec 2024

Monastery N.S. hosted it's annual Christmas Decoration from Recycled Materials Competition. Our pupils really enjoy this unique competition as part of our Green Schools’ work. The challenge is for children to make Christmas decorations out of recycled materials such as egg shells, cardboard, newspapers, plastic and glass bottles, tin cans, milk and juice cartons etc.

Prizes are awarded for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th places in each class. Check out our pupils' incredible creativity in the photographs below.
