In fact, Sheridan Public School, its staff and its 250 students never stop thinking about it and they've become one of the best in Canada when it comes to recycling non-recycling waste. In the past three years they've collected more than 268,000 cookie wrappers, snack pouches, lunch kit packages and other similar non- recyclable products. The school has also collected more than 4,615 pouches making it this country's top snack pouch collector, raising more than $3,000 for the school's technological needs in the process under the TerraCycle Brigade. Fran Matthews, the TerraCycle co-ordinator and a secretary at Sheridan, has been keeping the school's collections going throughout the summer. Also, she's been updating Sheridan Facebook page and website, and seeking donations of empty pouches via the website see Snack on p.19 ® Ultimate Drivers "Driver Training That Makes a Difference" SIGN uP ONLINe Program www.ultimatedrivers.ca For Reinstating Driver's License Prepares you for G2 or G License Defensive Driving Certificate Minimizes Road Test Time and Qualifies for Maximum Insurance Discount Driver retraining Program Complete refresher Program Helps Reviewing Your Driving Habits for Test ON Our BeGINNer DrIVer eDuCATION PrOGrAm.
