at the front of classrooms, school corridors, and school yard will ease them
to throw their rubbish at the proper placed.

students can’t find any trash can nearby, they tend to throw away the
rubbish such as snack package, bottle, can, and etc. These kind of
rubbishes aren’t not only will dirty the school environment but also can load
