Recycled Creations

As part of our topic 'Caring for our environment' we have been working on some projects which use objects which we would have been going to throw away.

Every year Queen Charlotte College holds a big competition called 'Wearable Dezigns'. This year, Jackie, our librarian put in her entry. She called it 'Rotational Splendour'.

Caring for our environment

Our topic this term is

'Caring for our Environment'.

We have been learning about how we can recycle our things to reduce the amount of rubbish we create.

We decided to save our lunch food scraps from our lunch and recycle them into compost.

Each class in our school has a bucket, into which we put all our old food scraps from lunch. Then we take them over to the garden and put our scraps into the Bokashi Bin.

"Once we've put the food scraps in, we put in some Bokashi sawdust, it is full of microorganisms which help to eat up the scraps and turn it into good suff for the garden" said Toby.

The dirt in our garden is full of worms "they help to make the soil better" said Sophie.
