Children of the dump

This subject links with our Philosophy discussion and our Rich task topic.

You may even like to do some extra research, and find out about these children and families in Cambodia who live in this rubbish dump.

Remember an informed opinion gives you greater understanding of others.

Please watch this youtube clip, and share your thoughts, and feelings about what you see and what you may think could be done.

Trash

Room 18 is currently studying sustainability and recently analysed the waste that students are putting into our school rubbish bins.

Unfortunately, a huge amount of food is simply being thrown into the trash rather than being eaten or taken home. We also found that plastic rubbish, which is non-recyclable is also a problem.

Read the student's comments about what they found out ... they will be adding their comments shortly.
