We actually found: 
5 Ziplock bags
14 cardboard boxes/food containers
7 plastic bags
8 Food wrappers
We thought it was interesting how many ziplock bags were left behind because they are reusable, as well as the cardboard - we have been learning that cardboard can be easily recycled. 
We think this rubbish was left behind because it fell out of people's lunch boxes, or it was dropped by Kindy or Year 1 students because they don't know littering is bad. ]]> 2017-03-19 06:23:05 UTC https://padlet.com/i_am_duckzilla/qdmngehby0ky/wish/160968656 i_am_duckzilla https://padlet.com/i_am_duckzilla/qdmngehby0ky/wish/160968687 We thought we would find lots of food scraps in our area because people don't always eat all of their lunches. 
We actually found: 
2 Apple cores
4 Orange peels
1 empty water bottle
2 muffin wrappers
3 plastic bags
We thought it was interesting that someone left behind their water bottle because those can easily be reused. 
We think this rubbish was left behind because some of the pieces were really small and hard to pick up. Also lunchtime is really exciting and sometimes we forget about our rubbish. ]]> 2017-03-19 06:23:58 UTC https://padlet.com/i_am_duckzilla/qdmngehby0ky/wish/160968687
