last year the "Kokua Foundation" had a bottle cap recycling project.
the school that had the most plastic bottle caps won a concert by Jack Johnson.
Waialua didn't win last year, but we were determined to win this year.
So all during the summer and into the beginning the caps were being
collected.
Before the holidays we found out that Kokua Foundation wasn't going to
be holding the the bottle cap contest. (I still think it's weird that they aren't
doing it, you'd think that someone or some company could foot the
bill to have these caps shipped to the mainland ,where they are then re-cycled).
Anyway, what to do with all these caps?
A very talented teacher and her enrichment academy have taken the
saying "lemonade out of lemons" to a beautiful end...
this beautiful mural on the side of one of the portables is made
entirely out of those bottle caps!
great job Green Thumb Academy!
