Dear
parents,
Over
the past couple of weeks in science, students have been learning about the
waste in our world. A large part of this unit is on the effects of garbage on
our environment. For this reason, we are starting a wasteless lunch program in
both grade 4 classes called MSD (mercredi sans déchets/ Wednesdays without
Waste), beginning on October 19th. We are encouraging the children
to bring lunches that include very little to no waste (i.e., tupperware
containers, reusable drink bottles etc.).
Throughout the next month students will be tracking all the waste they produce and at the end of the month we will summarize the results. Our goal is to make students aware of just how much garbage can accumulate in a short period of time. If you could help ensure your child brings a wasteless lunch on Wednesdays for the months of October/ November, that would be greatly appreciated.
