Ruma Tuarua: rubbish collectors!

For our statistics this week we have been collecting very yucky data: we have spent two days picking up rubbish around the school.

 Some rubbish was even in the top of the bushes!

We found a lot of rubbish, but we realised that it wasn't very much considering we spent two days finding it around the entire school...

We have been sorting it into piles:

• chip packets
• moosie and juicy wrappers
• other plastic (like spoons, other wrappers, gladwrap)
• food rubbish - apple cores, orange peels
• garden stuff like bark or leaves
• foil wrappers
• paper rubbish
• other/miscellaneous

 The children have decided we need to get rid of rubbish in our school -- and we don't want to pick it all up ourselves! So we are going to write a notice to go around the school and make some signs and stick them up in places where people eat their lunch...to say that we are Freeville Flyers who care for our school and we don't litter!
