Rubbish in Schools

I think students should take home their own rubbish on a daily basis. Even if that means having half eaten sandwiches lying in the bottom of their bag it’s a lot better compared to half eaten sandwiches lying on their school grounds.

If students took home their rubbish each day, they wouldn’t want to bring home a ton of food packets. So, hopefully if this happened they would be able to eat food not in packets like fruit and vegetables which give them a lot more energy compared to something like chips. Plus, they wouldn’t have to take this kind of rubbish home because it could be used for worm farms and composts at schools.

A lot of students don’t even bother to put their rubbish in the bin so having no bins will be better. That sounds crazy but usually people litter because they can’t find a bin around. By not having any bins they’ll know not to litter and to just chuck it in their bag later. They wouldn’t want to say they went to a bad school but if you saw rubbish all around their school grounds do you really think it would be a good school to go to?

When some students put their rubbish in school bins they usually just sit on top with all the other pieces of rubbish at the bottom of the bin, so do you know what that means? The wind can easily push it back to the floor and it’s an easy target for seagulls. Usually seagulls dig to the bottom of the bin but having lots of rubbish sitting at the top and on the floor will make it easier for them to munch on. This also attracts rodents too.

These reasons are why I think schools shouldn’t have bins and that students should take home their rubbish daily. It will not only make their school environment cleaner but it will also have students not bring all this junk and instead, bring healthy things to help them grow strong and healthy.
