PUPILS at an Anglesey primary school have started work in what could be a record breaking and very "green" greenhouse.
The children of Ysgol y Borth have begun making use of their new greenhouse, which was built out of 3,100 plastic bottles collected by the school.
Alan MacDonald, of Ysgol y Borth, said the structure could be the biggest of its kind in the world.
"The school, which has already been recognised by Estyn and the Royal Horticultural Society for its sector-leading Green Schools initiatives, officially opened the potentially record-breaking greenhouse at this year's summer fair," he said.
"The structure was opened by the world-renowned gardener Medwyn Williams, who was amazed by its sheer size."
Mr MacDonald said the produce grown in the greenhouse would fund further green initiatives.
