Recycling office materials could help a secondary school buy new equipment.

Warriner School in Bloxham has teamed up with recycling company Eurosource in an initiative to provide free educational, sporting, recreational and musical apparatus.

The school is appealing to companies to save toner and printer cartridges and old mobile phones.

Headteacher Peter Norman said: "Throwing away old phones and and printer cartridges is not environmentally friendly."

He added: "They could help our school buy valuable equipment."

Warriner School will earn points by recycling the used items, and the points can be exchanged for equipment of the school's choice.

Anyone with unwanted mobile phones, chargers, and phone batteries, plus used printer inkjet and toner cartridges, can drop them off at the school during term time from 8.45am to 3.30pm, at Bloxham Post Office or the Post Office in Banbury High Street.
