Tracy Vise, a teaching assistant and Friends of Herons Dale committee member, said: “Our children have a really good understanding of plastic and the negative effects of littering in general and were keen to get involved in this project.
“The bags were decorated in a variety of ways, including freestyle painting, paint splatting using a mallet and the tie dye technique.

Emma and Tom Strickland from Hidden Treasures, a shop in Ham Road, Worthing, made a donation to the school in order for this project to go ahead.
It was also supported by Legal and General, with help from Carley Ferguson.
