ABC War on Waste
After ‘War on Waste’ aired on ABC TV Tuesday night, many discussions on recycling and caring for our environment have already taken place in the classrooms and even in our staffroom! The number of children joining the Rubbish Busters and helping to clean up the yard on Wednesday has dramatically increased and it’s all because children are exploring the impact waste has on our environment.
Don’t forget to watch ‘War on Waste’ Tuesday at 8:30pm.
