Kia ora bloggers,
Today we were learning about composting. We learnt this because we are a green gold environment school. For this task we had to read two books about composting, watched a video and got onto a google slide. For the google slide e had to write facts about composting. I enjoyed learning that the food scraps turn into soil and I found it challenging to get all the facts about composting. Did you enjoy reading my blog post today?
