To reward their enthusiasm, prizes were generously handed out, sparking smiles and excitement among the children.
During the visit Manuela was accompanied by the Mayor of Test Valley Cllr Philip Lashbrook, Cllr Katie Brooks and deputy mayoress Karen Hamilton.
Headteacher Sarah Jones said: “It was a pleasure to welcome the mayor, guests and Manuela to Roman Way Primary School. The children learned an important lesson about the consequences of dropping rubbish and were inspired to take even more care of their environment.”
The school added that Manuela and her guests ‘left a lasting impression’ on the young minds, inspiring them to take positive action towards a greener and more sustainable future.
Manuela previously visited the school in December last year to talk about litter, plastics and how children can help the planet.
