Limited time only: 1 free excursion when booking at Statewide Recycling Education Centre.

Statewide Recycling is a ‘Super Collector’ of 10c deposit drink containers from recycling depots throughout South Australia, and the Statewide Recycling Education Centre is a fantastic showcase of recycling and reuse.

At Statewide, students will experience up close the sorting process of 10c containers, learn what happens to those materials, and much more as they explore what goes in our bins, how to reduce waste, and why it matters.

Activities include: Super Sorter, Canny’s Adventures (microsite), Household Habits, Classroom Cleanup, Window Watching and Conscious Choices.

Note: Statewide Recycling is a working facility. Students will have limited exposure to loud machinery. Ear protection is available on request.

This excursion can also be combined with an excursion to the P&M Eco Education Centre at IWS Wingfield.
