Room 2 - Enviro

In Room 2 we are making a Wetland Frog Garden. We thought the courtyard outside our room looked a litle bit boring and that something fantastic could be created fromthe unused space.

Our class decided to make a Wetland Frog Garden and have come up with initial designs in small groups. As a class we decided on a few items which should be included in each design such as, toadstools, gnomes and bird houses and native ferns and mosses. The class also decided that all the materials should be recyclable as this would cut down the production costs.

Once we had all completed our designs we pulled aspects from each out to make a final class design which we intend to build during Term 4. Watch this space!

Room Two is also one of the classes that are responsible for worm farming. Each day they collect the foodscraps buckets which are found next to each rubbish bin on the senior side of our school. The foodscraps then get emptied into the wormfarms and then the buckets are washed out and put back for the next day. We like to recycle our unwanted food waste and give it to the worms so that they stay healthy. The worms produce waste called Worm Tea which we bottle and sell to the community. Worm Tea is also known as 'liquid gold' and is a natural fertiliser which helps make plants grow big, strong and fast.
