Waste Less Wednesday

We have “No waste Wednesdays” at our school. The Nature Kids Club would like to move to litter-less lunches by the end of the year! Litter-less Lunches are when we do not leave any waste at school. Everyone is encouraged to bring re-usable containers for all of their foods.

Keeping Our Water Clean

The Nature Kids Club collects used or dead batteries (9V, AAA, B, AA, D, C and cell batteries) to recycle for the metal. The acid in the batteries is also drained and therefore bypassing the landfill and not leaching into our water systems.
