This project gives information on recycling at our Primary School - Campbells Bay Primary.  We have also researched recycling on the North Shore and other parts of New Zealand and reported on the zero waste policies that many councils and companies are working towards.  We hope our report will encourage people to recycle more, cause less pollution and help conserve and improve our environment.
