The weekly Green Tip is intended to share ideas about how you can reduce your environmental footprint at school, home and work.

As we kick off the new school year, we want to extend a warm welcome to both returning and new students! We hope you have had a restful and summer holiday break. Whether you’re excited about the year ahead or feeling a little nervous, it’s normal to experience a mix of emotions as you settle back into school life.

Please remember to rethink, reduce, re-use, recycle and repurpose to minimise waste.

The lead up to Christmas is also an important time to remember that every dollar we spend is a vote for the world that we want.
