Committee member Sue Andrews met with primary school teachers at Liverpool John Moores University recently, delivering training on use of her resource The Power of Recycling in the classroom. We thank RSC Liverpool section who paid for resource boxes for teachers to take away.

A poster entitled 'The Power of Recycling: the story of a lithium ion battery' from Sue Andrews is now on our website: appliedmaterialschemistrygroup.com/2-uncategorise…

Exciting topic! Interesting working on these resources. RSC Applied Materials Chemistry Group RSC Ireland Education Clara C. Niggebrugge Rob Jackson Fereshteh HS👉🏼👩🏻‍🔬🌍♻️👈🏼 Andrew Newsam @[email protected]
