In just 10 weeks Hawkes Bay school children have managed to collect 2.8 tonnes of lids and caps in a pilot recycling initiative.
Good Caps is an initiative led by Plastics NZ and a dozen schools participated with the aim to stop these valuable materials going to landfill.
One of those students who took part is eight year old Jasper from Havelock North Primary. He talks to Jesse about being part of the project.
