Environment Portfolio Report
23.10.19
Students and staff have continued to support the Environment Portfolio’s Trash Free Tuesday initiative by beginning Term 4 with over 200 students participating.

The portfolio aims to have 300 students on board by the end of the term.  Trash Free Tuesday is simply food that’s not packaged or wrapped which also tends to be healthier food.  Choosing foods with little processing and packaging is best for your health and the environment.  Did you know that over 50% of items in school bins comes from lunchbox food and drink packaging from home?
