Almost 40 schools are taking part in the eco-friendly scheme across Essex.
Youngsters from nearly 40 schools across Essex have also set up their own monthly eco-refill "shops", as part of a green project funded by the county council.
Rob Getley, the assistant principal at Kingsmoore Academy in Harlow, which is taking part in the scheme, said it was a "brilliant experience" for the pupils. Each shop received £200 worth of eco-friendly products to help kick-start their business, which would help to improve their maths skills."They have gained real-world business skills and been able to take leanings from their maths lessons, applying them in real life examples," Mr Getley said.Such was the success enjoyed by the scheme, the council said it would continue to take place across Essex.
