Making Compost

The Green School Committee took part in a very interactive and engaging lesson, whereby they learned how to make compost.

Marianne spoke to the group and demonstrated the important steps and the various processes that it takes to create compost for our plants in our garden.

Students helped layer dry and raw materials to build a compost lasagna of sorts which will break down to create a nutritious compost.

They sifted through some compost created last year to identify the various  species of mini-beasts that like to make it their home-students were shocked to see how biodiverse it was.

A huge thank you to Marianne for organising the lesson and her ongoing support and commitment to our students and garden.
