The Sims Metal WASTE TO ART & design 2021
EXHIBITION AND COMPETITION
The Year of Aluminium and Steel Cans
WASTE TO ART is a community art exhibition and competition open to all local residents who reside in the NetWaste region. It showcases creative works made from reused & recyclable waste materials. The aim is to challenge peoples’ perceptions about ‘rubbish’ and to celebrate the reuse and recycling of waste through arts and crafts.
Waste to Art provides an innovative approach to waste education, invites individuals, schools and community groups to take up the challenge and create a new life for materials that would otherwise have been thrown away, considered useless: bottle tops, plastic bags, parts from rusty farm machinery, old horse shoes, buttons, and the list goes on. Instead of ending up in landfill these waste materials can be turned into fantastic works of art.
The Competition will include categories to challenge and stimulate the imagination.

Why do I want to be a councillor?
Councillors are elected by their local community to represent community views on council, provide leadership and make sure local needs are met. They do this by directing a council’s affairs, allocating resources for the benefit of the local area, developing policies and reviewing the council’s performance in relation to delivering services and other matters. A councillor’s role is important. The decisions a councillor makes and the services provided by councils can impact on our lives, our local community and our local environment. Being a councillor can be rewarding because it provides an opportunity to: – make decisions that help people within the local community – influence the long-term, strategic direction of a local community – learn new skills such as public speaking and advocacy – work with a diverse range of people on a wide range of issues. Being a councillor can also be challenging as councils need to: – balance community needs and priorities, some of which are at odds with each other – work within a limited budget and a complex set of laws.
