KS2 Visit Gillmoss Recycling Centre

8th July 2016
2MG recently visited GillMoss Recycling Centre as part of their topic on recycling!
At the centre the children had the opportunity to discuss and investigate the different materials which we recycle at home. They were able to observe the kerbside waste lorries bringing the recycling material to the centre, see how all of the material is unloaded and witness the different machines hard at work sorting the waste materials.
 
The children enjoyed the hands on approach to recycling at the centre and learnt a lot about how different materials are recycled. They even had to wear hardhats and 'high vis' jackets to keep everyone safe and to really be part of the team!!
