As you may realise, our school recycles many materials, all of which goes towards our part in saving our environment. Recycling plastic cups is one of the many things we do at school. As we throw away many cups every week at lunchtime, this is an excellent way of making sure we don’t harm the environment. This idea has been used in school for many years now and is a major success.
At our school, we also recycle paper; not only that but we have made our own new paper out of it, as well. Both of these Eco-friendly ideas are very important. Each class has its own white paper recycling bin and we use them regularly.
Finally, recycling used ink cartridges is another way we help to look after the environment. Children bring in the empty cartridges to school and they are collected and recycled.
This year we are also recycling:
- batteries
- textiles
- used pens
This all helps to reduce the waste which goes into landfill sites – yay!!
