♻️ Getting It Sorted: The Future of Waste & Recycling at PBC State School ♻️
We all know waste is a problem — but what if schools could lead the way in rethinking how we deal with it?
Join us for a good news story about waste with Tom Pasley from PBC State High School, as he shares how the school has transformed its waste management processes over the past two years.
📊 The results are inspiring:
✅ 1,200 fewer bins sent to landfill in 2024 compared to 2023
✅ $7,000+ earned through the Containers for Change program
✅ 30 tonnes of food waste composted on site
Tom will walk us through PBC’s journey — from conducting a waste audit, to winning grants, to designing smarter bin systems, and most importantly, changing student and staff behaviours around waste.
You’ll hear how they tackled:
🥕 Food waste
♻️ Co-mingled recycling
🥤 Beverage containers
💻 E-waste
📄 Paper
🗑️ General waste
This presentation is packed with practical insights, real data, and inspiration for anyone interested in reducing waste, saving money, and creating a better future for our environment.
