WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL T2T PILOT CHALLENGE!
What if recycling wasn’t a chore, but an adventure?
What if young people could turn everyday actions into points, achievements, recognition and real impact?
That vision inspired GreenCrate Solutions to create Trash2Treasure (T2T) a gamified recycling experience designed to make environmental action exciting, rewarding and something learners genuinely want to be part of.
🚀 And now, the challenge begins!
Today, we proudly welcome five pioneering Eco Schools into the very first T2T Pilot Challenge:
🌱 Eastside Primary
🌱 Moduopo Primary
🌱 Fairdale Primary
🌱 Diepsloot Secondary
🌱 Buhlebemfundo Secondary
Welcome, Eco Champions! 💚
You are the first schools to step into the T2T experience and your participation is helping us test, learn and shape a programme with the ambition to reach schools across South Africa.
Through T2T, recycling becomes an experience. Learners can earn points, unlock badges, unlock their avatars, compete with classmates and climb the school leaderboard, all while developing something far more valuable: a mindset of responsibility, innovation and possibility.
🏆 Who will become the Top Student Recycler?
🏫 Which school will rise to the top?
⭐ Who will earn the most points, unlock the most achievements and make the biggest impact?
But this challenge is about more than winning.
Every piece of waste collected.
Every data point captured.
Every achievement unlocked.
Every new idea imagined.
Every learner inspired.
It all counts.
The data gathered through this pilot will help us better understand our waste challenges and develop smarter solutions for the future. Most importantly, we are creating an experience that empowers young minds to see waste differently, not as trash, but as a resource and an opportunity to create change.
We are incredibly proud to begin this journey with these five schools and deeply grateful to Polyco and WESSA for believing in the vision of T2T and supporting our shared commitment to environmental education and empowering the next generation.
To our five pioneering schools:
Get ready. Get involved. Recycle. Earn. Com
