They scan barcodes on the blue tubs to see if your household is participating in the recycling scheme.You get points for recycling your rubbish and can pledge the points to a local school,the kids at the participating schools sign you up and your rubbish earns the points. Peel Park are currently way ahead on 16123 points whilst Mount Pleasant are 2nd on 9560.The schools involved have allegedly earned enough points for £20,000 of equipment.

Scarily,really big schools like Moorhead [2337] and Rhyddings [2208] don't seem to have grasped the point of the scheme.
I think it's a great achievement for the kids at Peel Park to be so far ahead and winning the equipment for their school. {Although in an ideal world they wouldn't need to do this as it would all be govt. funded!**
