Schools Clean Up Day 2019

1/3/2019

0 Comments

 
On Wednesday, our students enthusiastically scoured the schoolyard, orchard, church grounds and surrounding
streets for rubbish. This year we found the smallest amount of rubbish, since we started participating in Clean Up
Australia Day. This is a great reflection of the good habits of our students bringing plastic free food to school and
and the procedures we now have for eating recess food and lunch inside.

We collected 229 items, including 58 items that could be recycled and 64 items of soft plastic which can be sent to RedCycle.Thanks to all the students for great teamwork and Kate Novikov, Jo and Brendan for your assistance.

All our students had fantastic ResourceSmart day at Casterton Secondary College last Tuesday, enjoying learning about sustainability in workshops including: Beatboxing with Mal, Charlie and Kylie, the Recycle Relay with Linda, Where Does Our Food Come From? and Worm Farms with James and Permaculture 101 with Charlie.
Everyone danced and sang and grooved to the music of the Formidable Vegetable Sound System (FVSS) to finish off an amazing day.  Thanks to ResourceSmart staff, the Formidable Vegetable Sound System and Linda Grant from Barwon South West Waste and Resource Recovery Group for organising such an inspiring and fun day.
