Modesty House
Garbage Management
DON'T
THROW AWAY,
RECYCLE FOR ANOTHER DAY
Session 2015-16.
Project U-Turn and TERI
Objective: Manage various types of waste materials in the
school in a prductive manner through
recycling of Aluminium Foil,
Tetrapack, Paper & Plastics
and Kitchen Waste.
Action Plan : Modesty house has initiated the following activities to
sensitise and create awareness amongst students about the
need of proper “waste management” and promoting cleanliness in
the school premises.
I.
The students and
teachers from classes II-X contribute waste alumininium foil in huge quantities
for recycling. So far we have collected 40 kg
waste aluminium foil and deposited it with the team of the project You Turn for
recycling. This is ongoing activity.
II.
Recycling of Kitchen Waste: Keeping in mind
our mission for promoting clean surroundings in our school, Modesty House
started recycling of school canteen and
home kitchen waste. For this, our team is using the “ROLLY POLLY MACHINE” to
get compost i.e. manure for use in the school garden. Duties
have been assigned to each class for collection and using the machine.The schedule of classes on
duty is given on the blog.
III.
Recycycling of dry
Leaves: Students of class –X are actively involved in getting the dry leaves
collected from all over the school. The recycling is done with the help of
mulchy-Bulchy Machine. This helps in not only
keeping our premises clean but also in converting dry leaves into compost. All the above activities are done on a regular
basis & will be continued throughout the year.
IV.
Recycling of
Tetrapack and othe plastic & paper waste : Students of
all classes participate and collect all the waste paper, Plastics and Tetra
pack etc. The same is sent to TERI for recycling. During
session 15-16, the school has collected
a. 559 Kg of paper
b. 167 kg of aluminium foil
EVALUATION
In each of
the above areas we have achieved commendable success. We need to increase the utilization of the mulchy-Bulchy Machine. It is also
felt that there is a need to create more awareness on prevention of wastes
itself.
Future Plans: session 2016-2017
Modesty
house will continue all above projects. Increased Emphasis will be given to
1. participation of more students
2. sensitisation of students for keeping surroundings clean
3. recognition of active students
5. cleanliness drive from micro(class room) to macro
level(school)
6. sensitise students to use separate dustbins for
biodegradable and non biodegradable waste.
