Nude Food Wednesdays
Starting from Week 1 of Term 3, we are introducing Nude Food Wednesdays!
What this means is that on Wednesdays, we would like to see everyone coming to school without any packaging, plastic or paper that is single-use in their lunchboxes or bags.
Our Wildlife Warriors will be reporting to the Sustainability Leaders a tally of everyone who participates each recess, and the class that has the highest percentage of students participating in rubbish-free lunches will go into the draw to win a prize at the end of term!
Why Nude Food Days?
Bringing rubbish-free lunches to school means that all plastic and paper rubbish items are disposed of safely at home. At school, we see lots of chip packets, paper bags, muesli bar wrappers, etc., ending up in the playgrounds and around the school. Recently, these have been attracting many birds such as Ibis’, harming the local wildlife and causing the school to look and feel unclean for the school community. We want to ensure that all rubbish is being disposed of responsibly and the best way to ensure that happens, is for it to be done so at home. This is just one step forward in helping our school to be a more sustainable, clean, and safe place for all.
So, get your containers ready!
Thank you so much for your commitment to keeping our school clean!
