Testimonials from Teachers
Ollie Recycles UK
“The Centre for Education & Industry at the University
of Warwick has been delighted to be a partner in the development
of the Ollie Recycles CD ROM for use in schools within the United
Kingdom. The excellent graphics, interesting story lines and the
interactive games all help engage the children. In addition to
teaching them about the 3R's - recycling, reusing and reducing
- it also shows how they can actively become involved in what's
happening in their communities.

well with the other work we have carried out in school."
