“Great tour and fantastic presenter! Everyone should have this tour!”

Turn your students into waste warriors! In this hands-on program, students will learn about what happens to waste items in Edmonton, sort waste items by where they go and be challenged to identify how to better reduce, reuse and recycle.

Would you like us to speak to your Junior High or High School class, or invite a waste management educator to speak at an assembly? Contact our Education Coordinator at 780-496-5681 to discuss options.
