Eco award a matter of bits and pieces

Nursery children have stuck their green credentials to the wall with a mosaic made from recycled materials, as part of their setting's work towards an Eco-Schools award. Charlie Wardill, nursery manager at Heriot Hill Nursery in Edinburgh, said, 'We asked children, staff and parents to bring in recyclable materials that could be used to create the mosaic, such as tiles, bottle tops, beads and broken crockery. An artistic parent helped children with the main design, which was based on recycling. We really tried to involve the whole nursery in the project.'
