Can
Recycling
The thumbnail images above can be enlarged by
clicking on the photo. These photos show our can recycling efforts during
the year. The cans are bagged, stored in the shed and put out for
collection. Thirsty work!!
Paper
logs
Our new paper bins
These bins were distributed to each class so all waste paper would be put
into them rather than the general waste bin. The paper is collected each day and
soaked in a large bin in the shed
Here the paper is being brought from the classroom, in the paper bin, to the
shed where it will be soaked in water for a few weeks. When the paper is
well soaked it will be compressed into paper logs.
After
the logs have been made and allowed to dry the sixth class children brought the
logs home to be burned in their fires. 47 in total were made.
This
year we made almost 100 logs which was a great effort
Ringo
Project
Fifth class participated in the Ringo Project where
they collected plastic holders from cans for recycling. Here the plastic
rings are ready to be posted to the factory in Mallow
