The Eco Council had a fantastic afternoon at the Discovery Centre at Veolia Recycling centre, Gilmoss. They learnt about the importance of recycling and how we need to reduce, reuse and recycle to cut down the amount of waste in landfill sites. The children were shocked to find out the effect that waste is having on our local and wider environment. The Eco Council had the privilege of seeing first hand how products are sorted and recycled in the factory. They can’t wait to feedback the important messages that they learned to the rest of our school as part of our Waste Week focus.
