Precious Plastics Update

We’re so excited to announce that since September, we’ve collected over 20,000 bottle caps! Thank you to everyone who enthusiastically donated their bottle caps, and to our team for tirelessly sorting as well as counting them all. Results for the first round of the Inter-house will be announced in an upcoming assembly, so stay tuned as they’re coming very soon.

The team will move on to making plastic sheets with these caps in the following weeks, which will be used in Design and Technology classes for students to produce all sorts of designs and products.

In the meantime, the second round of our collection is underway! This will run until the end of the term (December 13), so you still have time to contribute to your house’s standing. (FYI: The competition is currently very close, with some houses topping at 5,000 caps!)

We’re also looking for volunteers to help with the sorting and sheet-making process. The sessions will take place every Monday and Thursday lunch. If you’re interested in helping out, come join us on the day in Room 404!

All the best,
The Precious Plastics Team
