AuSSI Waste Audit (Lower Primary)

In this activity students look at the waste management systems at their school. Students begin by counting the number and types of bins around the school (including rubbish bins, recycling bins and compost bins). They then look at the contents of the rubbish bins using photographs taken of rubbish bin contents. Based on what they see in the bins, students make an assessment on how successful the waste management systems are at their school.
