Schools were challenged to think outside the recycling bin and turn trash to treasure.
Many educators and parents were excited to have a platform to showcase the learners’ talents and skills at the trashion show.
According to Southcoast Mall’s marketing manager, Sanitha Amod, the event was a huge success.
This was also a perfect opportunity to highlight the need for recycling as a way to protect the oceans from trash and promote local tourism.
A whopping R10 000 was donated to Tidy Towns at the competition, to assist and support this amazing initiative.
