Über The Three Pickerteers
Environmental awareness

Hey 👋 I just created a page here. You can now buy me a coffee!
Well, it wouldn't be a coffee, more like a soft drink for the kids that are. THE THREE PICKERTEERS.
They are Syella-Rayne (11), Molly-Mae (10) & Alfie (8).
Syella-Rayne during lockdown did a zoom presentation for her class. Her chosen subject was Plastic pollution. This led to her school contacting the local council who then provided litter picking packs to any families wishing to litter pick and make an environmental difference. She is not shy when coming forwards with her thoughts on Littering and pollution.
Molly-Mae loves the adulation that she receives when picking, from the strangers who pass by on the beach and along the paths.
Alfie is also an adulation hound, but he will also tell those strangers what he has got.
The Three Pickerteers do this each week before going to play. Syella-Rayne often for 2 to 3 hours with dad, forever being told to get out of the Bush as she sees litter her grabber cannot reach. Molly-Mae and Alfie will pick for 1 hour maximum each time before they tire.
They are very competitive in their picking, demanding their be a winner of who collected the most.
This is educating by doing. They are understanding cause and effect. They are understanding that society needs to be shown what to do, otherwise no matter the age group, they are happy to walk past what they see.
They are never forced to litter pick. Syella-Rayne always will, Molly-Mae may just drag her picker on the sand before deciding she does want to. Alfie, he will flit in and out. If there is an object there, he will go after it. If the girls out battle him, he will down tools and regroup before joining in again. One thing it's done for Alf is improve his concentration, problem solving and hand eye coordination.
They are The Three Pickerteers and it is a case of "ALL FOR ONE, ONE PLANET FOR ALL"
