Collecting Litter






 We put on a glove, took some plastic bags and went out to the playground.  We found a lot of rubbish.  When we came inside we sorted the rubbish.  The paper we put into the paper recycling bin in the classroom, the plastic went into a bag, and Mrs Shaw took it home and will put it out for the recycling truck to collect, the banana peels and the plum went into the worm bucket, the marble and the plastic spoons were washed and we can use them in the classroom.  There was a lot of rubbish that could not be redused, reused or recycled so we are going to make a pretend landfill on the wall.  We are not happy about this because landfills take up a lot of room.                                                    
"We need to talk to the big kids about the rubbish in the playground," said Moss.
