Recycling
for Schools
There
are 19 schools in the Valley and surrounding area, within the catchment
area of Creation Recycling Ltd.
Each
one could play a significant role in reducing waste for the Borough
– and in educating children about sustainability and waste
management for the future benefit of Rotherham.
Schools
can lead by example – in the way they deal with their own
waste and by taking a pro-active role in raising awareness about
the 3 R’s (reduce, re-use and recycle) with children.
THE THREE R’S – REDUCE, RE-USE, RECYCLE!
Depending
on the size of a school, it can spend between £300 and £1000
per year on disposing of waste. Through reducing, re-using and recycling,
this cost can be halved – saving valuable resources on disposal
costs.
Getting
started is easy. Even big schools can take small steps to help reduce
the amount of waste.
