Sustainability in Action
Let’s get recycling! We love when our school community contributes to our unusual recycling collection. This year you can bring in your old:
- Batteries- We will take them to Aldi for you!
- Oral Health Care- Old toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and floss sticks are accepted and sent to Terracycle.
- Writing Tools- We can have these recycled through Officeworks’ recycling program
- Lids and bread clips- These are donated to Lids4Kids. We ask that you clean and dry your lids before your drop off. This might include taking the foam insert out as well.
While we have recycled coffee pods in the past, we are not accepting these at this time. In the meantime, you might look into compostable or reusable pods to eliminate aluminium waste.
The Special Recycling Centre is located outside the staff room near the school entrance.
