Have you seen the new signs around town. The message is clear and the children of Kalgoorlie-Boulder want you to listen! Don’t dump in our backyard.
This was a project that KBULG undertook with the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, The Waste Authority of Western Australia and Keep Australia Beautiful in 2019 to tackle the littering and illegal dumping issues in the region.
Congratulation to Jasmin who summitted the winning design which is the basis of the new signs!
Thank you to all the students who summitted their designs!
