We collected a fish box and other pieces of plastic like bottles.  I worked really hard and had lots of fun.

This beach clean was a good idea because there was loads of rubbish in amongst the big rocks and tangled in the seaweed.  It was fun that my Mum and Dad came to help too!

The rocky part over at the far end, hadn’t been cleaned in a long time.  We managed to clean up loads of the stuff, we found things like rope, bottles, shoes, plastic containers and fishing gear.  It is important we do these cleans, so that animals don’t get tangled up in the rubbish or even eat it by mistake.

It was good that we went all around the beach because we found loads of rubbish at the furthest away bit. 

The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child

Article 24 (health and health services)
Every child has the right to the best
possible health. Governments must
provide good quality health care, clean
water, nutritious food, and a clean
environment and education on health
and well-being so that children can stay
healthy. Richer countries must help poorer
countries achieve this.

Article 3 (best interests of the child)
The best interests of the child must be a top
priority in all decisions and actions that
affect children.
