Our trip to the dump

Last Wednesday we visited the dump to learn what happens to our rubbish and recycling. We hopped on board the bus and then we were off on our trip! Some of us saw our house along the way. When we got to the dump we met a nice lady called Sharon. She told us about the things we can recycle at home like cardboard boxes and glass bottles. We got to see some cool things that were made out of recycled material. Then we looked outside at the big cartons of cans, bottles and tins. After that we walked up to the recovery park. We watched as a rubbish truck emptied all of the rubbish onto the ground.

  1. Sharyn made rubbish look useful- it's great the way we can re-use things.

  2. Wow- look at you- it would be fun using those loaders and shovelling around the cardboard. Did you think it smelled- a good smell of compost?
