We found 188 pieces of rubbish which weighed 2.7kg. This is about half what we collected in the playground and surrounding streets last year. Foundation/Grade 1 students were a little upset they only found 21 pieces of rubbish around the play equipment and veggie gardens - we had to convince them that was a good thing! Most of the rubbish was soft plastic or paper and cardboard so we were able to put it in the RedCycle or Recycle bins. Thanks everyone, you did an amazing job!
Today was Clean up Australia Schools Day at St Joe’s. This year we cleaned up around the school and surrounding areas in our class groups.
