The magic of upcycling

Upcycled ingenuity. #LestWeForget.
This wannabe rubbish is now a valuable protected area used to propagate plants.
Pallets upcycled into garden beds to add colour throughout the school.
This outdoor hub is a fantastic expression of a great Hands on Learning precinct. A secure space to share and reflect, creative and of course built by the students.
Dimboola’s ‘Great Wall’ is a wonder of reclaimed timber and iron.
This little beauty is made almost completely from reclaimed pallets. Now the students, and rest of the school, get to enjoy the chickens and eggs. But which came first?
Reinvented every year. The Hands on Learning students at Elisabeth Murdoch College get creative and environmentally friendly using reclaimed materials.
Pallets transformed into magnificent light weight garden settings.
Practical upcycling at its best.
Ingenuity, creativity and the power of transforming waste.
A delightful daybed greens up a neglected space and adds a new seating option.
A perfect starter project making practical use of pallets.
From the chook house to an outhouse… An extra innovative conversion.
A disused desk frame transformed into a dog kennel.
These benchtops and cupboards, once part of an old deck and fencing, now a functional kitchen.
