Fair: Message by Edward

The fair is happening this Sunday (13th November 2016) and we are all very excited.

At the fair there will be 4 types of bins: paper and hard plastic recycling, compost, soft plastic and landfill rubbish  bins in two places in the school. Make sure that you put your rubbish in the correct bins.

Lolly wrappers are made of soft plastic do not put them in the landfill bin, then which bin will you put it in?

The soft plastic bin!

PFP bags… Remember to bring your pfp bags to the fair!!

Please tell other people about the bins.

Message from Sophie Williams...

83 of us collected heaps of rubbish today, about 10 sacks full! 

The weirdest things we found were:

A travel washing machine

A welding helmet

half an old wooden suitcase

A bra

A fishing rod covered in tube worms.

Melissa won the prize for most collected

Edward won for unusual small washing machine

Amanda won for unusual Welding mask

Kaia found the suitcase!

Edward and Vicky tidied around a penguin nest. Edward said: "From the sound of it, you could hear babies - squeaks. There was heaps of rubbish around the nesting box: polystyrene, snack packets and heaps of cups".

Great work! So satisfying.

Thank you to all of the families that participated- a real team effort. Such a great turn-out (and so much rubbish collected!), Plastic Free Peninsula is thinking of holding them quarterly.
