Earth day

As everyone know that April 22 is the Earth Day(next week),they usually ignore.We know that earth day is a very important day because we come together as a group to save the earth by doing the 3R,Reduce,Reuse and Recycle.We as student can also

Vermicomposting last year was really fun. Eco Club invited a vermicompost expert (Forgot what is his name ._.) and we had fun taking care of the compost bins. However, some other schoolmates threw stuff that are not suitable for the wormies to eat, like plastic.

Due to that, we had to pick up the food that was not suitable for the worms and throw it into the dustbins.

It was disgusting, of course, but we just had to or our worms will die. Also, we went to fertilise our plants using the compost we obtained from the compost bins. Although it was quite hard work, we enjoyed it.

Today, the compost bins are located at the staircase area beside the girls' toilet at the canteen. You can take a look inside, but don't mess around with it!

Also, remember not to throw in food that are not suitable for the worms. You can put wastepaper inside if you want.

Hope you enjoyed this post! See you around!

Singapore's iconic Orchard skyline was thrown into semi-darkness on Saturday night to mark Earth Hour 2012 - a global climate change event which encourages people to switch off their lights for an hour.

Hi,

We are from Greenwood Primary School Science Club. Below are some of the things you can help to save the Earth.

• Turn off the light when you do not need it.

• SEPARATE YOUR GARBAGE between reuseable or not reuseable

• SHOP WITH A RE-USABLE SHOPPING BAG

• DO YOUR LAUNDRY BY HAnd as you do not need to use elecrictcity

• BUNDLE AND RECYCLE NEWSPAPERS and then recycle

• DONATE OLD CLOTHING to charity

Last year we even invited professional to teach us about vemicompose . It was indeed a special experience for us and we learn about what the working worm can eat and what they could not.With the bin in the school,we took extra precaution as pupil will thought those were normal bin and throw rubbish in.Worm that decompose the rubbish will die because they contain salt or suger and maybe plastic.This will be the article on vemicompose today.Bye Bye! :)
