And they did - with a 71cms tall tower! So close but so good!

This Design Challenge made us think about waste and what we can do in our way to not just recyle but also segrate waste to aid the process of recycling. For an entire month we segregated waste in school, spoke to organsizations that do exactly that on a city wide level and learned to make wonderful products out of our segrated waste! We then sold our lovely products at the F.A.T Bazaar to help raise money for our programme.
