Sustainability in Action
Here at St Joseph’s, we are committed to reducing our waste output through specialised recycling programs. Please see below for an updated list of what we are collecting. Also - help is always needed in bringing collections to Fyshwick (Lids4Kids), OfficeMax (writing tools) and Aldi/ Woolworths (batteries) if you would like to assist with this process. We would greatly appreciate it!
.
We love when our school community contributes to our unusual recycling collection. This year you can bring in your old:
.
- Batteries - We will take them to Aldi for you!
- Oral Health Care - Old toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and floss sticks are accepted and sent to Terracycle.
- Writing Tools - We can have these recycled through Officeworks’ recycling program
- Lids and bread clips - These are donated to Lids4Kids. We ask that you clean and dry your lids before you drop them off. This might include taking the foam insert out as well.
- Disposable face masks!
Please note we are NOT yet collecting bread bags!
