The Environmental Council has taken up the initiative of collecting stationery, such as used pens, crayons, and markers, from the students at St. Robert.

Along with Staples and TerraCycle, this ambitious project is to prevent unused or broken stationery objects from entering the landfill, which can be detrimental for the environment. TerraCycle is an organization that takes waste that usually is dumped into a landfill, and transforms it into recycled items.

By contributing to this project, we could lift the tremendous strain on Earth and strive for sustainability. We could also decrease our ecological-footprint and reduce the size of landfills.
