St. Francis Recycled Greenhouse Project

With a funding grant from Boyne Smelters Ltd’s ‘Building School Legacies’ program, St. Francis Primary School has been working together with the Creative Recycling Centre to renovate the Greenhouse in the school.

Last Friday was the official launch of the Greenhouse Project, which the CRC and St. Francis students have been working on throughout Term 3. The project has involved using recycled and repurposed materials – all materials that would otherwise end up in landfill. The school has used many materials to unexpected materials to revamp the space including coffee pods, fishing line, tyres and fly screen to golf clubs, garden lattice and milk bottles.
