Save Our Sea Australia - Ian Thomson

Last Wednesday Yrs 2 to 7 listened to an audio-visual presentation from Ian Thomson or Thomo about the hazards of plastic bags to wildlife.

He left our students with a clear message about the need to reduce our use of plastic bags by :

1. saying no to using plastic bags at the checkouts of shops


2. using fabric bags and leaving them in our cars


3. taking used plastic bags back to supermarkets for recycling.

Later in the year , he will skipper the boat "Brindabella" and will be trying to break the record for circum-navigating Australia. He has promised to keep in contact with us during this trip via a computer.
