Don't forget about our new environmental education and fundraising program...Think Recycle!The Think Recycle program is simple. Students collect used cell phones, ink cartridges, laser cartridges, ipods, mp3 players, digital cameras and old laptops and return them to our Think Recycle box located at the school entrance and Seven Locks will earn funds for each qualifying item.
Through partnership with The Tree Canada Foundation and American Forests, Think Recycle will sponsor the planting of one tree for every 24 cartridges or cell phones collected.
Support of the Think Recycle program will help teach our children the importance of recycling, the benefits of tree planting and help raise funds for our school.
