Lindfield Public School Parents and Citizens Association

Did you know there is Silver in X-Rays?

Did you know that we can raise money for our school by having our old X-Rays that we no longer need recycled?

Are you wondering what to do with all the old X-Rays that are cluttering up your cupboards?

We are piloting a service being offered to schools for families to easily and safely dispose of their old X-ray films by bringing them to school and putting them in the security bin where they will then be taken and recycled by taking out the materials that are harmful to the planet and extracting the silver that is contained in each x-ray and putting this back into circulation to be used again.

The school will be paid a % of the value of the silver that is extracted from the film.

As a result, everyone gets an outcome! The planet, the school and your parents who have X-Rays cluttering up cupboards at home.

When and where:

The bin is located outside Mrs Stewart's office. We encourage everyone to use this opportunity to dispose of your films.

All funds received will be given to the SRC to decide how best to spend the money within the school.
