Wollongong West Public School’s Enviroweek Story
“Some of the activities we did this week which are still going are collecting plastic bags and learning about recycling.
In just in one week we were able to collect 401 bags. This was a real eye opener for the children.
We also did a waste audit to promote waste within the school. What interesting findings. We documented the details and pictures in this week’s newsletter and are hoping to start doing “nude food days” soon where we will not bring any waste to school.
We found out that the waste on the playground ONLY… in one day was 13kg. 7KG of wet waste including food scraps and even food that had not even been opened like a sandwich and a sausage roll from the canteen.
We were so amazed of how much people are wasting. The rubbish in total made up of paper bags, plastic wrappers weighed 5kg in total. Much of this could of been recycled and instead it was put into the garbage bins will then go into landfill.
We have also planted some new vegetables this week. Including capsicum and passion fruit.”
