**Trash is a global challenge, causing pollution notably in our city spaces. How can we actively, creatively and collaboratively engage with our trash? Inspired by Arvind Gupta’s ‘Toys from Trash’ concept we raided the school junk room. We found a treasure trove of Old pipes, cardboard boxes, oil cans, you name it. We upcycled the discarded waste and re-used them to create a multi-tactile obstacle course that can have sustained use.

Here’s the video link to view the entire obstacle course - https://photos.app.goo.gl/MXytG9ZBkA5XtThX7
