CHILDREN at Great Torrington Junior School learnt about the world-wide effects of being green.

Pupils had a lesson with Mrs Recycle, aka Cathy Karniewicz who taught them about the three Rs — recycling, reuse and reduce.

To coincide with the school's visit from Henry Sanyang from Gambia, a headteacher from Africa, Mrs Recycle wore a green African dress and talked about the world-wide effects of living in a throw away society.

Children brought in unwanted items from home including carrier bags, bottle tops and plastic bottles and made African dolls, cup and ball games, windmills and a message tree.
