ECO DAY at Orehek Primary School in Kranj

To celebrate the Earth Day, OREHEK Primary School hosted the event in cooperation with Komunala Kranj, Circular Shield and other partners. Several activities and environmental workshops were organized. Ms Manja Zorko Deputy Mayor of the City of Kranj also attended the event in support to the headmaster Drago Zalar and teachers.

The event is an excellent opportunity for children and teachers to refresh their knowledge about our responsibilites towards the environment and to learn something new. Circular Shield team also participated in ECO DAY – we presented how used beverage cartons can be recycled. The school already uses hygiene paper made from locally collected used beverage cartons. This is an important contribution to protecting trees, increasing recycling of local waste and also reducing the carbon footprint.

We are pleased and proud that P.S. Orehek is a member of the Municipal Material Cycle Kranj. The project is being organized by Circular Shield in partnership with Komunala Kranj, the City of Kranj, and municipalities Šenčur, Naklo, Preddvor and Jezersko.
