Environment Club: This week is Waste Reduction Week in Canada! Here at Worsley we consume a lot of resources, and generate great amounts of waste daily. We are working towards reducing waste by doing things like. . . using both sides of the paper, photocopying less, using reusable water bottles instead of disposable ones, recycling/composting our trash, and encouraging litterless lunches. Our clothing swaps and scrap metal drives are also wonderful events that have helped to combat waste and increase awareness. As a class, brainstorm what you can do at school and at home to help to reduce waste! Environment Club members will be visiting all classes at some point this week to give presentations on waste disposal at Worsley. Please give them your attention and respect when they come to your class! Environment Club members working on posters please have a quick bite to eat in your class then come to Ms. Holroyd’s room before 1: 20. GO GREEN WORSLEY!!! Go to next slide….
