Grade 4 learners at Pridwin Prep School shared their love for the environment by participating in the #TrashTag global movement on 5 June.
Armed with rubbish bags, gloves and the help of their teachers, boys took to the streets of Melrose, where they collected over 20 bags of litter in just under an hour.
Boys got to see first-hand how much litter there is on the streets, which appear to be clean. The bags of trash were taken to Pridwin’s recycling department where they will be recycled correctly.
Marketing manager at Pridwin Prep Demi-Rae Le Roux said, “The boys were so excited to be part of the #TrashTag initiative and they are hoping to collect over 500 bags of trash by the end of the term. Their goal is to make a difference in this world, which they certainly did.”
