The “Green Team” at John Stanford International School invites you to learn more about recycling and food waste collection at home and at school Tuesday, April 3, from 7-8 pm in the JSIS cafeteria.
This tip-packed session is open to the public and free of charge. Waste Management staff and Green Team members will answer your questions about how to get your unwanted stuff out of the garbage and into your recycling and yard/food waste carts.
So bring your burning questions about what can go where and why and why not.
Plus the JSIS Green Team will present information about some of this year’s projects. The Team recently visited the Cascade Recycling Center and witnessed first hand how items collected from our home recycling carts get sorted and baled.
All attendees will be entered in drawings for several “green” prizes, including kitchen food waste collectors, upcycled lunch bags and tote bags, and reusable water bottles. Children and adults can also win prizes by correctly guessing the number of aluminum pop tops in a huge jar or plastic caps in a see-through bin.
The cafeteria entrance is on the south end of the school building, next to the covered basketball area, facing the main playground. Parking will be available on the JSIS playground: enter from 5th Avenue NE going southbound just past the official JSIS address: 4057 Fifth Ave NE.
This event is sponsored by the JSIS Green Team, Waste Management, and Seattle Public Schools Resource Conservation.
