Campbelltown’s recycling mascot officially has a name, the Bincredible Hulk, thanks to the creativity of a local primary school student.
The winning entry by Savannah, who attends Minto Public School, was chosen from over 60 submissions in the name our bin buddy mascot competition which invited primary school aged children in the Campbelltown local government area to put forward their ideas.
When asked why she chose the name, Savannah explained: “The Hulk is powerful and that’s where the Bincredible Hulk idea came from.
“It represents the power we all have to make a difference through recycling,” the young creative said.
