RECYCLING EFFORTS


Some of our second year QTS students were involved this week with a Design & Technology Project that involved reviving a product and giving it a second life.


Some of the artifacts included - Wind chimes made from shells, Jewellery from buttons, Photograph frames from recycled cardboard, cushions from old T shirts and as you can see from the photograph above - clothes from rubbish.


It might not make the catwalk at London Fashion week - but hey! - we liked it
Not to be outdone - we've started metal can recycling at the Gateway and there is a bin behind the Ground Floor hub to collect your empty drink cans.
By September we're hoping to add plastic to the list - watch this space.
