Our
grade 3 classes received a grant from TD Friends of the Environment
Foundation to purchase vermicomposting systems for our classrooms!
Part of the grade 3
science
curriculum includes students investigating the process of composting
and learning about the importance of soil.
This
past week, Cathy, from Cathy’s Crawly Composters, came to
visit us to teach us more about the importance of composting and
how our living vermicomposters work! We had
an
awesome time learning about what can and cannot go into our vermicomposters,
how to take care of them and set them up! The vermicompost will
also help fertilize our gardens at Earl Kitchener.
