What's in our compost?15 April 2024 (by admin) |
KS1 were visited by a scientist from Recycle Devon today, who taught them all about what happens in our compost bins!
What a brilliant way to start the new term, a visitor to tell us all about what is going on in our stinky compost bins! The children spoke about where our rubbish goes and how it is disposed of. Next, the children turned into minibeasts that find their home in compost bins, they wiggled as worms, glided as snails and scuttled around as centipedes. A big treat was getting a close up look of these minibeasts that live in this micro-habitat, The activity was run by Resource Futures who are raising awareness among children of how much rubbish we make and how important it is to reduce, reuse and recycle. We can't wait to learn more about different habitats in our Science topic this term!
