How Long Does Rubbish Take To Decompose?

Today we spent time with our buddy class to work out how long various pieces of rubbish take  to decompose.  We were amazed how long many things took. Some never break down! Styrofoam, plastic and glass bottles are estimated to take 1 million years or never. Even aluminum cans take 200 to 500 years. Scary!

The senior members of the Enviro Group planted our fruit trees at lunch time today.

Creating our Outfits for Trash To Fashion Parade

Looked like  bomb had exploded in R15 today. Lots of Green Hat thinking as the students created their outfits for the Trash To Fashion Parade on Wednesday. Lovely to see them cooperating, sharing and helping each other.  Thank you to all the wonderful parents who helped.  Couldn't have done it without you.
