10 January 2025 | During the last few months of 2024, six classes of Grade 3 and 4 students from Howrah Primary School leapt into action with the Let's Explore Waste program.

1 October 2024 | Wild and wet weather put a spanner in the works for a planned excursion for Grade 3/4 students from Lindisfarne North Primary School, when the Copping Landfill Site was closed due to the weather. 

24 September 2024 | Students from Lindisfarne North Primary School got into the spirit of waste management recently, thanks to our Let's Explore Waste program. 

23 July 2024 |  Cambridge Primary students recently embarked on an excursion focused on waste - seeing where it goes once it's placed in the bin, and getting a firsthand look at ways in which to minimise landfill and maximise recycling to power the circular economy.

The Let's Explore Waste Program includes a full-day excursion to waste facilities and lesson plans mapped to the Australian curriculum. There is a lot of community interest in sustainability, waste and litter, particularly in recent years as people witness huge volumes of waste going to landfill and the threat that litter poses to the natural environment. With catalysts such as the ABC TV program 'War on Waste' and restrictions on recyclables, people at home, at work and at school are looking for ways to reduce their environmental footprint.
