What is waste for you, is wealth for somebody else. There has been a tradition in India of finding an innovative use for every thing: - tyres, battery cases, plastic bins and what not. A similar thing is started in School which saves both the environment and money in the bargain, in addition to inculcating in students a habit of not discarding things unthinkingly.

Apart from making innovative things from discarded things in the Crafts Period, two major activities are suggested to the school under the Reuse Society. The first activity is to exchange books and even notes at the beginning of each academic session. Students of a senior class give the books to the students of a junior class and, in turn, receive books from the senior section, and a chain is established throughout the school. This way a lot of paper and consequently trees can be saved.

The next major activity in the Reuse Society is to donate books and outgrown clothes, toys, etc. The books / story books /comics that have been read and re-read, the clothes and shoes that have outgrown, are collected in schools and given to the less fortunate children of the society. Such collection is presented to Child Welfare organizations, slums, orphanages etc.
