Our Primary Student Representative Council (SRC) is in the process of launching a recycling initiative within our College community and as part of the preparations the SRC Captains and Vice Captains took part in a full-day recycling workshop run by Year 5 teacher, Beth Simonis.
The purpose of the workshop was to inform and inspire our young student leaders about sustainability and recycling before we promote this further within the whole College during Term 2 and beyond. Our SRC will help to lead our recycling scheme by sharing their knowledge with others and encouraging their peers to recycle.  
During the workshop the SRC gained an understanding of what things we can recycle and the purpose of recycling, the role and impact of excess waste on the environment and how we can take action within our College community to reduce wastage.  The workshop program was developed by BalCC and based on information from Waste Warriors.
