What A Waste!

Each person at our school creates waste! This waste can take many different forms. We decided to have a look at the different types of waste we create.

  • Paper - Which will be recycled
  • Food scraps - Which could be composted but at the moment aren't
  • Rubbish - Which will end up at the landfill



We then explored where our waste could end up. We created a class flow diagram that started to show step by step where our waste went...
