Lids4Kids

This year Delacombe Primary School's JSC is partnering with Ballarat Health Services to participate in the Lids4Kids program. 

The Lids4Kids program aims to empower students to become local Lids4Kids Legends by:

• preventing bottle lids from going to landfill.
• inspiring behavioural change, increasing awareness and encouraging recycling among their fellow students, teachers and the local community. 
• becoming a Public Collection Point to accept washed plastic bottle lids from their students, families, staff and local community. 

Lids4Kids Schools Program aims to deliver many tangible and intangible benefits to school members including helping them to:

• reduce the amount of plastic waste going to landfill
• become an agent of change for your local community in promoting reusing and recycling plastic products
• inspire their students and local community to do the right thing and reduce the amount of plastic dumped in our environment 

For more information on the program visit https://www.lids4kids.org.au/schools

So collect and wash your milk bottle, water bottle, soft drink bottle and cream lids and bring them into our collection points. 

There will be  collection box in all DPS classrooms as well as a drop off point at the front office. 

JSC students will then wash, sort and deliver the lids to the Ballarat collection points. 

Let's work together to reduce, reuse and recycle. HELP US HELP THE PLANET!
