School children have been longing for some years for playground equipment to play with in the school yards, and other useful equipment like bookshelves & racks to be used in their classrooms. But instead of buying new equipment, our school community took the opportunity and decided to work on ‘Doing more with less’ to contribute through awareness raising on waste reduction while delivering the same level of functionality. Thus we collected some unwanted products such as palettes and tyres and by stimulating creativity we transferred them into a reuse system and changed them into beautiful classroom/school furniture and playground equipment, instead of eventually becoming waste by promoting how it is possible to extend their life and how to achieve the same function of a product from ending up as waste some of which are normally thrown out.

After installing a home reverse osmosis system at our school to be able to minimise waste by using flasks instead of plastic water bottles, we got to know that when the reverse osmosis is not installed properly certain amount of water is being wasted down the drain. Thus knowing that water is so precious in our lives and that every drop counts, we took immediate action to utilise the system properly by installing the necessary needs and equipment so that the wasted-water will be used for flushing toilets.By means of this we managed to catch every drop!

Il-Kumitat EkoSkola tal-Kulleġġ San Injazju Primarja Luqa ħadem fuq kampanja ta’ għarfien fuq livell nazzjonali għal Milied aktar sostenibbli biex iqajjem kuxjenza dwar kemm jinħlew karti għalxejn fi żmien il-Milied. Wara l-Milied 2014, tlabna lit-tfal u lill-ġenituri kollha tal-iskola biex iżommu l-karti tat-tgeżwir tar-rigali li jkunu se jarmu u wara l-vaganzi tal-Milied iġibuhom l-iskola. Dawn intużaw f’attività li fiha ksejna l-art bihom. B’hekk stajna naraw l-ammont ta’ karti li kienu se jintremew. Ksejna area totali ta’ 522metru kwadru! Mill-filmati li ġbidna ta’ din l-attività, ħloqna vidjo (https://vimeo.com/147580611) li użajnih matul il-kampanja EkoMilied 2015 sabiex naqsmu mal-pubbliku dak li skoprejna. Barra minnhekk, b’din il-kampanja xtaqna nuru wkoll li hemm modi li bihom nistgħu naqtgħu din il-ħela, speċjalment billi nenfasizzaw dawk li bl-Ingliż jissejħu ‘the three Rs’ – reduce, reuse u recycle. Il-kampanja tnediet l-Erbgħa, 2 ta’ Diċembru fis-sala tal-iskola, fil-preżenza tal-Ministru għall-Iżvilupp Sostenibbli, l-Ambjent u t-Tibdil fil-Klima l-Onorevoli Leo Brincat.
