Niu Valley Middle School will collect HI-5¢ aluminum cans, plastic and glass bottles from 7:15 to 10:30 a.m. Friday at the school at 310 Halema'uma'u St.

Money raised by the recycling drive will help purchase books for the school's library.

The recycling drive also will teach students the value of recycling for the environment.

During the last drive, the school raised money to pay for teacher wish-list items.

The recycling drive is organized by The Friends of Niu Valley.
