National Ocean Trawler Packet Challenge

This year we are competing in the brand new “Ocean Trawler Challenge”, where schools compete amongst each other to see who can fill their net with the most crisp and confectionery packets. The schools with the fullest nets can loan ‘Coral’ the clownfish or one of her friends, completely FREE!
