A friendly reminder that we at St Joseph's encourage families to collect their bread tags and bring them into school where they can be dropped off to a number of places.

Each Primary classroom and Secondary PC classroom have been given a container where the bread tags can be collected.  Alternatively, bread tags can also been dropped in to the Administration building on the Primary campus.  You will see a small pink wheelie bin in the foyer in which your bread tags can be placed into.

Aussie Bread Tags for Wheelchairs is a registered charity that collects bread tags nationally in Australia. These are recycled in Robe, SA, into craft items such as boards and bowls. The funds raised through recycling are used to buy wheelchairs for the needy in South

Africa. They currently have 500+ collection points nationally and are recycling 200kg of bread tags per month.

You can see more about the organisation at https://ozbreadtagsforwheelchairs.org.au/, including pictures of the collection community and wheelchair recipients and the products of the recycling process.
