All about our scrap metal drive.

2. Talking Metal
One day Malcolm and Phil came and talked to us about
all the different metal types. From that we all
knew of lots of different metal that we could bring
in for our scrap metal drive.
Here are some of the metal types we could bring in:
steel copper galvanised iron
brass aluminium mild steel
heavy lead cast iron

3. Sunday Working
A few weeks ago on Sunday we had a
working bee at Phil Grover’s hop farm.
It was a great day and we had collected heaps
of metal from our very successful scrap metal
drive. Thanks to Neudorf Vineyard who kindly donated
40 years of scrap metal lying around the farm, and
everyone else.

5. Phil came to school
with this piece of
junk on the back of
his truck. We all had
a guess at how
much it was worth.
Our guesses
Were from

10. Other interesting points. . .
• We cleared about 24 tonnes of ‘rubbish’
from the local area during the fundraiser.
• A tonne of steel made from recycled steel
generates 2 tones less CO2 emissions
than a tonne of steel made from iron ore.
Good for the environment all round!
