Giving old candles a new life

As part of the European Week for Waste Reduction, our students collect leftover candles discarded by local churches, as well as partially used candles from their homes. Instead of throwing them away, we melt the collected wax and use it to create new candles.

Through this creative activity, students learn about reuse, waste prevention and the importance of making the most of available resources. By giving old candles a second life, we promote environmental awareness and show that even small actions can make a difference!
