It has begun!

Thank you to all those who brought in plastic bottles for us to use.
The first few steps on the construction of the Green house has begun. We have begun cleaning and de-labelling the bottles.





First we rinsed out all of the plastic bottles, and then we cut off and separated the labels.
One problem we encountered was, many milk bottles that were given to us were not rinsed out properly, which over the period of 3 months stated to accumulate mold. The mold caused the plastic to excrete a foul stench. It also made it unusable for the construction of the Green House,         because the bacteria may cause problems to the crops grow inside it.





In the future of you choose to give us any more plastic bottles which previously contained milk or any other dairy products, please rinse out the contents before giving it in, so it is usable. ☺

If you have any plastic bottles that you would like to give in, please bring them to Ms. Munthree in W05. If you do not attend Alfriston College but would still like to make a contribution, please comment your email address down below or contact us at forthefutureac@gmail.com. Your efforts are greatly appreciated by us and the wider community.

Sincerely,
For the Future Group
