Following from a year 7 lesson from our Inspirational People lessons, Mrs Burlsem and I are going to be running our Enterprise Day activity around the idea of reusable bags.  Year 7 have already learnt something about the issue and about Rebecca Hosking who campaigned to get plastic bags banned in her home town of Modbury.  Wirksworth in Derbyshire has also moved in this direction and according to BBC news Derbyshire County Council are interested in taking a county wide approach, so do you really need that plastic bag, or could you get a reusable one and do something for the environment?
