Organic Veggie Growing in Schools

Start off building and filling the compost bins!

ORGANIC COMPOST BINS IN SCHOOLS

We have been making organic compost bins for schools for a number of years now.

Ganesh buys the wood or sources re-cyclable wood and with the childrens’ help measures and makes at least 2 compost bins. More curriculum links with measuring – Ganesh generally does the sawing. Once all the measuring and nail hammering is done then the fun really starts.

We like to encourage the school to ask pupils and staff to bring in all their compostable kitchen waste from the day before so we can start adding to the compost bins once they are made. All sorts or mature dungs are added to this to get the compost bins off to a great start. We ask the children to bring other items out to leave in the compost to see if they break down we suggest: plastic, cardboard, metal, wood, hair, etc – another curriculum link with science.

Once the compost bins are up and running hopefully the school will encourage the children to add their apples and bananas scraps to the bins.
