Recycled takeaway and food storage containers along with plastic water bottles could help a school get some new playground equipment.
Langafel C of E Primary in Longfield has signed up for a nationwide contest with food company Sistema and recycling experts TerraCycle to win a playground with a frame made from recycled materials.
It will include two slides, an approach ramp with rope and a large platform amongst other features.
Claire Holmes, who is pastoral lead for the school, said: “We are thrilled to be participating in this great contest from Sistema and we are calling on all members of the Longfield community to help us be in with a chance of winning a brand-new playground.
