COMPOST
As we all know, waste is harmful to the environment if it is not controlled. Too much waste can cause lots of problems such as flood, air pollution and many more.

There are many things we can do with those green leftovers after dinner. Instead of throwing them out, why not turn it into your very own organic fertiliser?

Objectives:
-To reduce the school's wastage and put the waste into good use.
-To make organic fertilisers more commonly used instead of chemical fertilisers.
-To ensure that the plants are not contaminated with chemical substances.

Composting is the process in which you turn green waste into organic fertilisers by mixing it with other elements such as water and fertilised soil in a bin or container.To make compost is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
- Get waste materials and chop them into small bits and pieces
- Mix the waste with some fertilised soil and a bit of water
- Leave the waste for about 3 or 6 months depending on the weather
- Turn the compost heap every week to stabilize the humidity of the heap

The members involved in this project for now is the Compost Team led by Puan Norafizan. But, this project is not limited to only team members. It is a project that we all should practice in order to save the dying earth as it is now. It is not a project involving a lot of expenses. Actually, there are no expenses involved at all.

This project has achieved some of the goals for the past few years:

After composting for about a year, we managed to reduce the school wastage for about 6%. The school is no longer using chemical fertilisers for most of the plants around the school and is now using this organic fertilisers instead.

If you are not making you own compost right now, start today and play your part in saving our dear earth.
