During a workshop the focus is on fun and creativity and the participants are encouraged to go at their own pace. As part of our waste awareness work we begin most workshops by making people aware of the 3R's - Reduce, Reuse & Recycle. Workshop participants are asked to gather waste materials for the workshop, as the start of their awareness of waste as a valuable resource.
All facilitators are responsible, caring adults with concern for participants' safety at all times.
