Every classroom in Vermont Primary School has four different types of bins.
The GREEN bin is for food scraps.
The BLUE bin is for paper
The RED bin is for general waste
The last bin is for soft plastics only
We are striving to reduce the amount of general waste in each classroom. We can do this by making sure that only food scraps are put in the GREEN bin. Paper should only be put in the BLUE bin and soft plastics in the Plastic bin.
Thanks
