Recycling continues at the school as the children learn that many items we use can be recycled. Today Room 9 took the big toner cartridges from the school printer to the local Post Office. They are posted back to the manufacturer and are refilled. This is a great thing to do because so much recyclable material goes to waste and is buried in landfill sites or incinerated.
Since we introduced the blue recycling bins into our classes, we have recycled over 300 full bins of paper, plastic and other materials. We also recycle old clothes, shoes and bags in the school and our Eco Committee keep a close eye on things to make sure we continue to do all we can in this important area.
