Compost fun with Mr McCaven
WALT: recognise and understand the
process used to construct a
compost
We can do this when:
We were very lucky that Mr McCaven showed us the grass clippings that will eventually turn into compost. We learned that the grass clippings will get warm and decompose and then they will help the school gardens grow.
We can do this when:
- we participate in discussions about compost
- explain how compost is constructed
- explain why we use compost and its benefits

Compost
Room 2's compost learning experience!
WALT: Room 2 is learning about reuse, reduce, recycle and compost this term. Mr McAven was very kind to give us a very informative lesson on how compost works.
Success Criteria: we can show we know about compost when we can name things that we can and can't use to make compost.
Room 2 went out on a very wet day with Mr McAven looking at the process on how compost is created at Oaklands School. We have learnt the following:
What is Composting?
Composting is a term that is used when there is a breakdown of natural waste and organic solid wastes. Usually composting is done in a bin or heap, where natural rubbish is allowed to mix together and decomposed into a crumbly fertiliser.
Why Should I Compost?
Not only does composting help us reduce the amount of rubbish that we bin, but composting is also an easy way to get some excellent – and free – fertiliser for Oaklands Schools garden.
What Materials can and can't be Composted?
Many organic and natural materials can be composted. Grass cuttings, leaves, bark, flowers and vegetable scraps can all be composted, as can fruit scraps and peels, leftover table scraps and egg shells, coffee grounds and stale bread. Paper, cardboard, sawdust, animal manure and seaweed can also be composted. Do not add meat scraps, wood branches, metal, glass, or plastics.
Here we all are looking at the final product - Oaklands own compost.
Where the compost starts to develop by adding grass clippings, bark, leaves etc.
