Our Lower School takes its recycling very seriously. These First Graders are composting the scraps from their class's mid-morning snacks. Now if we could only get them not to waste so much food!
Definitely a good thing for them to be learning! Hopefully recycling and composting will be second nature to them when they grow up. It's really amazing how much food we tend to waste - my husband and I have started shopping only for the things we need to make dishes for the next couple of days and we try to use up all our leftovers. We still end up with waste, but not nearly as much as before.
