Posted: March 13, 2013

Tide Head School is the New Brunswick Winner of the “Recycle My Cell Student Challenge!” The school sent in more cell phones per capita than any other school in the New Brunswick (120 cell phones and 10 pagers). The school will receive a $500 reward and, required to put it toward a Green Project, Principal Heather Ross plans to use it for their school vegetable garden project. Recycle My Cell is Canada’s national recycling program for mobile phones and accessories. Nationally 131 schools participated across the country with 4760 discarded phones collected along with 270 kilograms of accessories and batteries. For more information visit Recycle My Cell .
