Trip to The Refuse Station and Landfill

Rooms 4 & 6 had an interesting trip to the Refuse Station and the Landfill.  It was an education for the children and adults.  At the refuse station the children saw recycling in action.  This really illustrated what they have been learning about.  We had two excellent guides that explained about what we were seeing. The best photos I got were on the bus.
Here we are talking with our guide Angela


Angela is explaining about  recycling plastics.

The loader goes into the pit here.



 This is the tunnel  the big trucks go into to be loaded up with rubbish to take to the landfill.
Once an article is in the rubbish it stays in the rubbish.  It does not get recycled . It gets buried at the landfill.
