A PAIR of clowns have been teaching children about the benefits of recycling in a school show.

Bozo and Zizi the Recycling Clowns visited two Buckinghamshire primary schools and returned to complete the tour this week.

Their 45-minute, high energy and interactive environmental theatre show "What a Waste" is part of Bucks County Council's Rethink Rubbish at Schools programme. In the last year, the programme has visited 65 schools and more than 14,500 children have got involved in activities from school waste audits to composting with worms.
