FAMILIES who re-use plastic bags will be able to earn vouchers for schools to get eco-friendly equipment.

FAMILIES who re-use plastic bags will be able to earn vouchers for schools to get eco-friendly equipment.

Asda in Weston will give out Go Green vouchers to anyone who brings in their old carrier bags to pack their shopping.

Schools collecting the vouchers can then exchange them for grow beds, pocket microscopes, solar panels, remote camera bird tables and a whole host of eco-goodies.

Corpus Christi, Locking Primary, Milton Park and Wyvern Community Schools in Weston and St Martin's Junior School in Worle are all taking part in the scheme.
