On display at Kirkleatham Museum is an exhibition titled “Recycling the River Tees.” The displays, made by local students, are created entirely out of rubbish. This includes a trolley recovered from the River Tees and a model of the river made entirely out of plastic food wrappings. There are also some wonderful poems created by local primary school children.
We want visitors to think about recycling their rubbish so that we can help to keep the River Tees and our countryside clean and safe places for us to enjoy and the wildlife to live.

Children seeing their work on display
Children are invited to design a flag that will remind visitors about the importance of recycling and looking after our environment.
The winning designs will be featured on the flag outside Kirkleatham Museum. There will be a small display of the shortlisted entries inside Kirkleatham Museum too.
Competition details and templates can be found below.
