Trash to Treasure with St Luke's Elder Care

Creativity is making MARVELOUS out of the DISCARDED!

We received lots of recyclable materials from our Launch Party! Toilet rolls, cardboard boxes, plastic bottles, bottle caps .. mm …

To young children, what are treasures? What do they value? What do they deem as precious? TOYS AND GAMES OF COURSE!

After much thought and discussions with the K1 children, we roped in a parent volunteer’s help and taaadaaaa! Bingo cards and marble Run!

To take this project a step further, we collaborated with St Luke’s Elder Care to conduct a craft session where our K1 children would teach and work together with the elderly to create Bingo cards and a Marble Run game.

Materials for Bingo cards:

  • Cereal boxes 

  • Markers 

  • Decorative sequins/stickers

  • Bottle caps

Materials for Marble Run:

  • Cardboard lids 

  • Toilet rolls

  • Pieces of coloured scrap paper for decorative purposes 

It was heartwarming to see how the elderly responded to the children and vice versa! 

After completing the craft, we spent some time playing with the finished products.
