BalCC has been successful with our application for a 2021 Woolworths Junior Landcare Grant for our project, Waste Warriors.
As part of our initiative at BalCC to reduce our water and be better stewards of our resources; the Primary school SRC have provided each classroom with a food scraps bin. Students empty the scraps into the compost each day and give them to our two new chickens, Fleck and White Fang.
BalCC is one of 1,609 primary schools and early learning centres throughout Australia receiving a Woolworths Junior Landcare grant to help grow our next generation of environmental champions. The grants are being funded with a 10c contribution from each sale of the Woolworths Bag for Good at full price, which was launched in 2018 when Woolworths went single-use plastic bag free.
The Primary students and teachers are looking forward to working and learning from this project and we will keep you updated on the results.
