The school recycled 2278 units of waste between April and October this year, which would have otherwise gone into landfill.
The school thanked the community for voting for them, collecting oral waste care and voting for their ongoing support.
The school will continue to be a collection point for oral care waste, such as: toothbrushes, empty toothpaste containers, boxes etc and items can be dropped into the school office for recycling.
This National Recycling week we encourage you to look at recycling programs that you may be able to implement in your workplace or business.
TerraCycle offers a range of free programs that are funded by conscientious companies, as well as recycling solutions available for purchase for almost every form of waste.
