Each Tuesday, we are encouraging students to be mindful of the rubbish they generate and to minimise the impact that this has upon our environment. In order to do this, we ask that your children bring their crunch and sip, morning tea and lunch in reusable containers, without the use of plastic wrap or snap-lock bags.

Each week, teachers will be giving ‘Trash-Free Tuesday’ stickers to students who participate, which will be placed into their sticker books to acknowledge their efforts in being environmental stewards.

Clear labelling of all containers/lids/spoons etc. will ensure that items aren’t lost. Not only does this initiative minimise the amount of waste that we produce, but over time, there is a cost saving benefit to this approach.

We look forward to introducing Waste Free Wednesday in the coming weeks. 

Thank you for your support and assistance with this whole school initiative.
