The Nelson Recycling Centre

Thank you to all of the wonderful parents who supported our visit to the Nelson Recycle Centre last Thursday. We really enjoyed seeing the different second hand but reusable goods for sale, and were fascinated by the huge mounds of papers, cardboard, plastics, and metals being sorted, collected, and compacted for recycling into new products. We also really enjoyed watching the non-recyclable waste being crushed in the hopper, although we hope to reduce this kind of waste since it goes into the landfill!
