Let's Be Litter Free

In our mission to becoming a more sustainable College, we're pleased to acknowledge the increase in students and staff using lunch boxes and reusable containers.

We congratulate students on choosing reusable drink bottles rather than single-use plastic bottles. 

Around 8 million pieces of plastic makes their way into our oceans - every day - so it is important that we reduce, reuse and recycle. Help us protect the oceans and reduce landfill by ensuring soft plastics don’t come to school. Litter free lunches mean our recreational areas for learning and play, and more importantly our beautiful Port Phillip Bay be litter free. 

Decant snacks into reusable containers and remove wrappers from muesli bars and other items before placing them in lunchboxes. Together we can make a difference and together we can be litter free.
