Taking Action - Caring for the Environment!

Last year the 2012 Preps (with thanks to Mrs David) began an action to reduce the amount of plastic going into landfill. You can read about our action here and here. We have a bench seat that is made from all the plastic we collected.
This year we are continuing to encourage our school community to recycle their flexible plastic. 
On Friday RED came to collect our flexible plastic for the second time this term.
It is amazing that one community has stopped this amount of plastic going to landfill! 

Our flexible plastic collection

Thank you to all our families who recycle their flexible plastic and support our action to care for the environment.

How do you care for the environment?

Do you recycle?

An Exciting Day!

Last year Prep D and Prep K worked very hard to reduce the amount of rubbish going into landfill. Mrs David contacted the RED group and we bought a bin to collect flexible plastic. You can read about RED here.

When we had collected enough plastic we had a special seat made using all our plastic. Today we were able to see our seat for the first time! We are very proud of our efforts and hope that our community will keep bringing their flexible plastic to school to put in the RED bin.

Prep K 2012 try out the new seat
