As part of our Science and Geography unit this term the students are looking at waste management. As part of these units we are asking students to monitor the level of waste that is put into the rubbish bin, recycling bin and green waste bin each week for 3 weeks. The students will be recording the level of waste on a sheet that will be sent home this week. In order for the students to have an accurate measurement of waste, we ask that you please help your child record the level of waste in your bins the day before they are to be emptied. 

The aim of the activity is to find how much waste is being put into the bins and then find out how to reduced this level of waste in the future. Your assistance in this activity would be greatly appreciated.

Have a great week!
