Update

1) Recycling Bins

It has been a long time since i posted about this. Our bins were nice but they collected more food than bottles.

Styrofoam boxes that contain food thrown into the bin AT 8AM

At the end of the day, the boxes were piled up with Styrofoam boxes. I suspect the cleaners throw the content and the box away as i could not find it at the end of the day.

Lessons to be learned

place a lid over the bin such that only bottles can go through
put picture of bottles such that people understand what the bin is for at a glance
do not use a black trash bag to contain the bottles
Ensure there is or build rubbish bins beside the recycling bin

Consolation: at least we helped ease the rubbish problem on the first day of P4 math carnival.

2) There is a green committee meeting today (5 June)
You all can discuss worldview if you all want, but i (TPL) will be doing HSSRP, so busy...

3) We need a date to meet together online to discuss with our facilitators.
