We now have a new item in each classroom. It’s a compost bucket. These buckets will collect waste food from each class and this waste will be added to our compost heap in our gardening area to create our own compost to fertilise and nourish our soil.
What is compost?
Composting is an aerobic method of decomposing organic solid wastes, so that they can be used to recycle organic material. The process involves decomposing organic material into a humus-like material, known as compost, which is a good fertilizer for plants.
As you can see in the pictures below, some of our crop is already starting to bloom. In no time, we should start to see everything that we have planted start to sprout. We are all very much looking forward to harvesting and eating our crops!
RPS Primary is pleased to announce a series of open mornings for parents and carers to visit the school. All start at 9:30am running until 11am. They will consist of a tour of the school conducted by a group of current pupils followed by a talk by the Head of School or a member of the senior leadership team.
