Bag Up Manitoba!

Our Teacher Librarian, Mrs. Friesen is heading the "Bag Up Manitoba" initiative at BHS this year.

We are once again collecting as many plastic bags as we can from Sept 30 until Nov 1.  Our grade four Green Team is assisting with making posters to promote this and by helping count the many, many, many plastic bags we receive!  We will receive a garden box for the school made out of recycled bags and the top 14 school will get a bench.  Let's strive for that new bench!

Last year at Birds Hill we collected just over 3000 bags.  Let's see how many more we can collect this year! 3500? 4000?


DID YOU KNOW?! Last year, Manitoba students diverted 1 347 000 plastic bags from landfill!!

How many can we divert at BHS? Start sending in your bags today!
