Along with other children, parents and teachers, we are not ready for a waste depot to be built so close to our schools.

Why do something like this in the middle of a community if hardly anyone wants to go ahead with it?

Put yourselves in the position we schoolchildren are in.

We are going to be spending our playtime smelling a disgusting smell. There will be more traffic and with young children around it will be extremely dangerous.

Whoever thought of putting a waste depot here should be ashamed and should try and live with a waste depot next to his house.
