The Council is celebrating its schools’ recycling efforts this recycling week, September 22-29! Schools across Rhondda Cynon Taf have been rescuing items by recycling for over a DECADE, thanks to the Council’s recycling competitions.
Three schools in particular have consistently risen to the GREEN challenge and showed off their super-eco skills, by never failing to enter the Council’s recycling competitions!
Since the very beginning, Ton Pentre Junior School, SS Gabriel and Raphael R.C Primary School, and YGG Tonyrefail have been Eco Superheroes, and have always been ready to fight the green fight, powered by their supportive communities. Over the past 10 years:
• Ton Pentre Junior School has collected a staggering 177,739 grams of Easter packaging and 511,415 grams of used Christmas cards for recycling!
