As Tekkeköy Municipality, we think that recycling should be integrated into our lives. We believe that the most effective method for this is to teach school-aged children about recycling and raise their awareness about it. Because children carry the awareness they learn in schools to their homes and raise the awareness of their families. In this way, we have the opportunity to introduce recycling to the whole district through schools.

Between 20-24 November 2023, students will be given training on recycling in our district’s schools for 5 days. scope of education; There will be paper waste, plastic waste, glass waste and metal waste. Presentations of this training will be prepared separately for each age group. During the training, students will be presented with sample materials such as recycling bins and waste types. At the end of the training, informative QR codes about recycling will be distributed to students. Additionally, recycling bins will be provided to every school.

Following this training, a packaging waste collection competition will be held in these schools, which will last for 1 month. The packaging waste collected by schools will be weighed and recorded by us. At the end of the month, the 5 schools that collected the most packaging waste will be given computer awards at the award ceremony to be held in our Municipality service building.
