Food Waste Bins

We’re pleased to let you know that we are introducing food waste bins across the school. This is part of our ongoing commitment to reducing waste and helping our school become more environmentally friendly and to comply with the new DEFRA regulations.

What’s changing?

• We have food waste bins placed in our dining areas
• Pupils will be encouraged to use these containers for any leftover food or food scraps
• Packaging and other non-food waste should continue to be disposed of in the appropriate recycling or general waste bins

How you can help:

• Please remind your child about the importance of using the correct bins at school
• Encourage them to think about separating food waste from packaging, both at school and at home

Thank you for your support as we work together to make Hodge Hill College a cleaner and greener place for everyone.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the school at enquiry@hodgehill.bham.sch.uk.
