Court Fields School Eco Council has signed up to work with Terracycle and act as an official collector in Wellington for biscuit, cake and cracker wrappers, and for old toothpastes, toothbrushes and their packaging.

Terracycle is a worldwide organisation that takes difficult to recycle plastic, turning it into pellets to create other products and avoid sending them to landfill.

Collection boxes are in the main entrance porch of the school.

Eco Council leader Mrs Morcom is pictured with Jeremiah, Anthony, Kristin and Isaac and the recycling boxes.
