Say NO to Landfill waste! Sausage Sizzle #2

 Diverting Waste From Landfill!

Our Senior Enviro Team, along with many other keen seniors have done a fabulous job of collecting and sorting waste at our recent sausage sizzles.  

The PTA is also doing a great job of buying 'low waste' products (bulk, environmentally friendly) and helping to reduce waste through their careful use of resources. 

Here's the hard facts: 

* Sausage sizzle #2 we collected: 

- 5.47kg total of 'waste'

- 4.96kg of this was diverted from landfill (recyclable, compostable)

-  4.96 kg/ 5.47kg = 91% diverted from landfill

ready to go! 

In action! 

Some of our fabulous team!
