Then we put on safety helmets, glasses and vests and went for a walk to watch the trucks deliver the rubbish to the centre. Large bulldozers push the rubbish onto a conveyor belt and then it goes into the machines that sort and bale up the rubbish.
There are five types of rubbish that are recycled at the centre:
1. Plastic
2. Glass
3. Paper and cardboard
4. Aluminium
5. Steel
We also learnt that we should wash our recycling before putting it in the bin because then it wont smell so bad at VISY!
We had a great time on our visit to VISY and we learnt a lot. Now we can use that knowledge to take better care of our environment.

DeleteHello we are Room 3 from Waikowhai Primary. We love seeing all the pictures of you at the Recycling centre in Onehunga. Next time it would be great to see a video of the bulldozer moving all the rubbish. How did you get to the recycling centre?
ReplyDeleteHi Room 3, thank you for reading and commenting on our blog. We had lots of fun at the Recycling center. We couldn't take photos of the bulldozer because of safety reasons. We went in a School Bus to the Recycling Center.
