‘We saw some volunteers clearing up this morning and they told us that Canoe Lake looked like it had been destroyed because there was so much rubbish and that it was going to take them hours to clean.
‘I think if it was left so people who want to come back and enjoy the beach the next day could see what they had left then they would be sitting in a rubbish dump and it might make them think.’
