This week, Baird and Burns clans were visited by Matt from Veolia, who are a water, energy and waste recycling company. Matt explained to the children how waste from our homes is taken to their sites, like the one in Almondell. They then use a range of processes to clean the water enough so that it can be recycled into rivers. Matt had also brought along samples of the water from the local site to show just how clean the water becomes before it is returned to the river.<\/p>\n

They were then able to make these hats into paper aeroplanes and then finally a bag. This showed the children that things can be recycled multiple times and still have their uses. The children absolutely loved the visit and learned lots of new facts.<\/p>\n
