Merici has a Container Deposit Scheme (CDS) Collection.
This scheme encourages recycling and reduces the amount of recyclable materials in landfills where they become waste.
Eligible, empty drink containers can be returned for a 10c refund.
These are the eligible containers:
The SAM students are hoping to raise funds for a Lids4Kids Recycle Anything bin, which is $880.
You can help by sending in your eligible, empty, rinsed containers to the collection bags in Student Services.

Note that this is a house competition so be sure to get your containers into the correct bag.
