3 Reasons Our School Should Collect Cans

Infographic showing three reasons schools should collect cans and bottles for 10 cent return

Reason one: it helps the Earth

Recycling keeps cans and bottles out of landfill and out of places where they can harm nature. That means cleaner places, less waste, and better care for animals and our planet.

Reason two: it helps the school

Every returned container adds a little money. When lots of containers are collected, the school can use that money for books, fun activities, new equipment, or special projects.

Reason three: everyone can join in

This is a team job that students, teachers, and families can do together. Sorting and collecting containers is a simple way for everyone to help and feel proud.

Class ideas

Set a class target for how many cans and bottles you want to collect.
Talk about which school reward your class would be most excited to help fund.
Remind everyone that every returned container helps in more than one way.
