The Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society is hosting a student litter cleanup challenge until October 31st, 2022 for schools across Manitoba. Participating student groups will be entered to win one of three Oh Doughnuts classroom doughnut parties!
Over 800 students have cleaned up litter in previous contests and the goal is to see that number continue to grow!
This contest is open to schools, daycares, homeschools, and after-school student groups.
To enter the contest:
1- Take your student group outdoors to pick up litter at your local greenspace, neighbourhood, or park.
2 – Take photos, and fill out this entry form before October 31st, 2022.
A lesson plan is available to help to explore the environmental impacts of litter, as well as ideas for further student exploration and learning.
Please have conversations with students about safe vs. unsafe litter to pick up (e.g. needles, glass, etc) and have an adult supervisor present at all times.
If you have any questions please conact Avery Kash (she/her), Environmental Educator with the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society – Manitoba Chapter. Email: avery@cpawsmb.org Website: cpawsmb.org
