The students from classes 1oA and 1oB visited a recycling plant. They saw decomposers under a microscope and learned about the 3 R's - reduce, reuse, recycle. A guide explained what items can be recycled from the kitchen, living room, bathroom and garden. The landfill is nearly full and will only last until 2012. It releases biogas and liquids. Birds of prey are used to scare away seagulls from the landfill.
