“Our school is having a fundraiser!  We are bringing in dead batteries, to recycle!  When we bring them in, we tape the top and bottom of the batteries with masking tape.  That insures that the acid won’t leak out.  Then, we put them in the battery box in our classrooms.  Then the grade 6’s will put them into the big bin in the front hall!  The more batteries we bring in, the more money our school raises for Sick Kids Hospital!  Our school also has a chance to win money to help our school!  By bringing in these batteries, we are not putting the batteries in the landfill, and that helps our planet because the battery acid will not leak into our world.  We will be doing the fundraiser until April!  Thanks for helping our school, the Sick Kids Hospitla, and the planet!”
