Trip to the Landfill ♽
This morning the class went out to the landfill to see where our trash goes and why we should recycle. First, we went into the weighing station to better understand how the process works. We learned that trucks must weigh-in before and after. We also learned that around 50 trucks come a day!

Video of the baler- each bale of cardboard is around 1,300-1,500 pounds!
🚒: Fire Prevention Day 🔥
A huge thank you to the Clarinda Fire Department for teaching the kids fire safety. The firemen showed/told them students what they should do during a fire. They also got the opportunity go in the safe house, see inside a firetruck, and look at all the equipment. We had a great time learning how to be safe!
