Walking Tour of Resource Recovery Group

I’m writing to inform schools and community groups about an upcoming free public walking tour Resource Recovery Group’s Canning Vale Centre, scheduled for Saturday 4^th May (for adults and children at least six years of age or older). The tour will be delivered by staff at Recycle Right/Resource Recovery Group with support from Eastern Metropolitan Regional Council’s (EMRC) Waste Education staff. This email has been sent as a BCC to relevant schools in the region.

This is a group walking tour of the site for residents within the Shire of Mundaring, City of Bayswater, Town of Bassendean, City of Swan. You may like to notify your school community, teachers, parents about this opportunity. I have attached a digital poster for reference, which includes a QR code and URL that link to our registration page on Humanitix.

The tour will be delivered by a staff member from Recycle Right/Resource Recovery Group, and I will be going to assist. It’s an opportunity to view the Resource Recovery Group’s FOGO Processing Facility, and the Material Recovery Facility (MRF) where some councils send their kerbside recycling for sorting and baling, and learn more about Recycle Right.

Please note that as this is on a Saturday, while the facility is open as it receives bulk green waste drop offs from residents over the weekend, the MRF itself will not be running (ie. No MRF staff work on the weekend and the machinery will not be running). However, we will get to see the MRF site through the observation windows at the Education Centre and Recycle Right staff usually show a video, explain how the system works, and either run a short quiz or interactive games at the end of the tour.

It is a walking tour and guests need to make their own way there. Registrations via our Humanitix page are essential, and full details for the event are here:
https://events.humanitix.com/walking-tour-of-resource-recovery-group-s-canning-vale-centre-for-emrc-residents.

Please note:

This is a walking tour at a recycling facility in Canning Vale – guests must have fully enclosed shoes (eg. sneakers), and wear sun smart clothing (hats, sunglasses, long pants, sunscreen are recommended)
All attendees (including children) must have registered for a ticket in advance (please note children under 6 years of age are not permitted) and places are limited.
Attendees are to make their own way there on the day- the tour will commence at 9:30am and concludes at 11:00am. Please plan your journey in advance to arrive a few minutes early.
Guests are to remain with the group during the tour
