Education on minimising waste and increasing recycling can start early in a child’s life. Schools and early learning centres play a vital role in communicating these messages to children, families and throughout our community.
Council provides a range of free waste education programs for Early Learning Centres, primary and secondary schools within the municipality and can also assist Early Learning Centres and schools in establishing a recycling and composting program.
