Waste Free Wednesdays Competition 

At St Mary's we care for our Common Home. One simple way we can help is by reducing the wrappers and plastic in our lunchboxes—this helps keep our waterways clean too!

Next term, we’re launching our Waste-Free Wednesday Competition! Everyone is encouraged to join in and think of ways to pack a lunch with less waste. Could you use a reusable container? Wrap your sandwich in beeswax? Chat at home and come up with some creative ideas! Feel free to share them with your class too.

There will be prizes for the class with the fewest wrappers each week.

Check out the posters on the slides below designed by our amazing Grade 3 and 4 students as part of their Permaculture learning this term!
