Schools Plastic Project (SPP)

Getting the youth involved - The Junior Ambassadeurs Programme

The education system provides an enabling environment for the transfer of knowledge and the influencing of current and future behaviour. We believe it is important to teach our children to be good environmental stewards and our schools and their children can play an active role in protecting and improving the environment. That is why we train them to ensure that the next generation is prepared to take care of this planet. Engaging children early creates a direct impact on their behaviours and attitudes, as well as that of their parents, relatives and families.  By changing their outlook, they change their behaviour, and by extention, their homes, schools and communities. 


The Junior Ambassadeurs programme provides that opportunity for students to change the future of their society. Students learn about the history of plastic, what is meant by the word plastic, the impact of plastic and what happens to plastic after use. They learn how to REFUSE, RETHINK, REUSE, RECYLE and RECOVER as they help to protect the earth. They learn how to think critically, and how to use data to inform solutions. 


The Junior Ambassadeurs use citizens science to establish baseline and timeline data as they examine practical solutions to the questions: 

  • How do we use less plastic? 
  • What are the available alternatives? 
  • What is the business case for plastic alternatives on campus? 
  • What policies can the school community introduce to reduce the amount of plastic it allows on its campus? and most importantly, 
  • How can we do this at home? 


Children are the back bone of the nation and can be incredible agents of change!
