School children have been shown the benefits of being more sustainable by an environment campaign group.
Jersey Reuse Revolution (JRR) has been working with the government to put sustainable swap kits into every school in the island.
They contain items like refillable deodorant and lip balm, locally made soaps and plastic free skin care products, along with water bottles and coffee cups.
The sessions were designed to get children talking about being more sustainable and the JRR has been invited into schools including Janvrin Primary School to demonstrate how the items can be used.
Florence, 11, was one of the pupils who was shown the products by Louise Carson, one of the co-founders of JRR.
She said it was “really fun and exciting” and “it’s very important for young people to learn about sustainability and things you can do to help the environment”.
Lorenzo, 10, was also in the class and said “it was really good” and showed “how to start recycling things instead of putting them in the bin”.
Ms Carson said “I’m really excited about doing things in education” because “the kids can take that forward into their families and influence different generations”.
She added: “I’m hoping we show there are choices when it comes to using sustainable items and the children go home and tell their parents about it to make a difference.”
The JRR runs two other not-for-profit groups in the island – the Jersey Sustainable Period Products Project and Borrow a Bucket Box.
