Recycling Drive

Everybody loves a good old fashioned friendly competition between schools, and the recent recycling program held in Wesley Methodist School Kuala Lumpur in conjunction with SMK Puteri Kg Pandan & SMK Dato Harun was exactly that. The program was designed with a twofold endgame in mind: it was designed both to encourage students to participate by adding an element of competition into an otherwise stereotypical recycling activity, as well as to reduce the school’s carbon footprint. Over the course of 3 months, the program proved to be a staggering success, with over 2000kg of recyclable items collected. With luck, this program will continue to err in the direction of success, and that it will help encourage students to begin recycling more proactively.
