Did you know that one of board members is award-winning cartoonist and children's book author, Fiona Katauskas? We're so lucky to have access to her talent and Fiona does a brilliant job in capturing our important messages with her illustrations.

Here's something we say time and time again. While 'recycle' likes to take the spotlight in the waste and resource hierarchy, it's 'reduce' and 'reuse' we all need to focus on to truly make an impact.

Bird a little bird house in your soul and neighbou

Bird a little bird house in your soul and neighbourhood.

These birdhouses are 99% there, they just need a little tweet from you! All the hard work has been done, pattern making, sourcing materials then sawing all the plywood and screwing together. Just some nails or screws have gone in the wrong direction, up to you to make them fly.

$10 each early bird catches the worm, call 9569 3132 after 9am

Reverse Garbage's national student creative reuse

Reverse Garbage's national student creative reuse competition, Reconsidered, is now open to all secondary and tertiary students across the country.

As Australia's largest creative reuse centre, our aim is to keep reuse top of mind and inspire innovation and creativity by turning discarded materials or 'waste' into something functional or artistic, large or small.

We have some generous cash prizes from our sponsor, Gateway Bank, to the value of $5000, so get creating!

Register now at: https://reversegarbage.org.au/educate/reconsidered/ (or link in our bio). Entries close September 22.
