GOAL: To further reduce our school waste going to landfill
We have adopted the TRAFFIC LIGHT bin system to try to help us with this.
This system is seen in households, businesses and attractions all over New Zealand.
RED: LANDFILL BIN
STOP! Re - think - can the rubbish go somewhere else?
This is the last resort! Mainly broken, snapped things.
NO FOOD in this bin - take lunchbox items HOME or compost
ORANGE: RECYCLING
Things must be CLEAN and DRY
> Paper or cardboard
> HARD plastic numbered 1 - 6
> Metal or glass
NO FOOD in this bin
NO soft plastic in this bin
GREEN: FRUIT & VEG SCRAPS
Fruit and veggie scraps for the worms!
Paper towels, tissues & paper bags can go in here too
NO sandwiches, cake or pies - take these HOME!
