Sustainability @ MMPS
In 2025, the MMPS Waste Worriers proudly implemented a three-bin recycling system across the school, aligning with the Macedon Ranges Shire Council’s waste collection model. This important step has helped us teach students how to correctly sort waste and understand the impact their choices have on the environment.
We have also extended our recycling efforts to include soft plastic recycling and 10c bottle and can collection, further reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill. These initiatives not only support sustainability but also empower our students to take an active role in caring for their school, their local community, and the planet.
Through these programs, students are developing lifelong habits in environmental responsibility, helping us significantly reduce the number of rubbish removal bins required each week, and contributing to a cleaner, greener future for all.

In 2025, our students, with the support of dedicated parent helpers, have transformed the garden beside the STEM building into a peaceful sensory garden. Designed to help cool the area and encourage local wildlife, the space provides a calm environment where students can pause, observe, and connect with nature. With plants to touch, smell, and watch, the garden has become a space thoughtfully created by our students to enjoy, reflect, and find moments of calm throughout the day.
