You can drop off your refundables on school days at drop off or pick up; just put them in the blue round bins in the hallways. Bigger bags can be dropped of directly inside the big blue bins in the recycling room which can be found down the stairs from the library, beside the gym on the playground side.
But, because we understand that many of you are busy and empty bottles are not a priority during the morning rush, we are now offering monthly bottle drives too!
We encourage you to collect all your empties in boxes or bags and bring them to the colourful recycling container near the playground.
The next community bottle drives will be held between 10am and 12pm on
- Saturday November 3rd,
- Saturday December 1st
- and Saturday January 5th
This event is open to all members of the community, so tell your neighbours and friends to start collecting too. If your office/business is collecting drink containers separately, why not ask if you can take them off their hands? And lastly, we are currently picking up empties from The Fish Counter on Main Street but would be happy to connect with any other businesses that would be willing to donate their bottles towards our program too.
Feel free to contact Caroline at [email protected] if you have any questions or can connect us to another local business.
Div 1 and 2 students are helping with the recycling process and all proceeds of our recycling program are going towards their Jasper trip.
