Prize For Pultneytown Pupil

Calum Sutherland, aged 10 from Wick received a surprise visit to his school before the end of term from a larger than life animal character.
 
The Highland Council’s recycling mascot, Compost the Cow and Waste Management  Assistant Agnieszka Kalemba visited Pultneytown Academy Primary School to present Calum with a rucksack made of recycled material and an organic T-shirt. 

Earlier in the year Calum had entered a wordsearch competition in an edition of The Highland Council’s Kerb Recycling Newsletter.

After presenting the prize Agnieszka Kalemba stayed on to give a talk about “Reuse, Reduce, Recycle” to the P7 pupils.

Kerbside collections offer an easy and convenient way of recycling paper, cans and garden waste from your doorstep which cuts down the amount of waste which ends up going into landfill sites.

Full details of how to recycle household waste is available from the Council’s website http://www.www.highland.gov.uk/ or by telephoning the Waste Management Team on 01349  868439.
