Calista Team Steam Ahead

Kids were collecting paper recycling from each class in boxes when I arrived!
The team have been researching wormfarms and are looking forward to a visit the The Grove to check out their ideas!
Calista Primary School Doing More With Less Team have been busy with various projects since the Doing More With Less Sustainability Roadshow in Kwinana. Weekly meetings ensure their progress is steady - they have used their Flip camera and are making a film about their wormfarm research and how to set up a wormfarm. Using their recycling philospoghy they have found two old unused wormfarms and fixed them up and then set up two wormfarms to collect class food waste. The film will be completed and given to MK to use to promote recycling. They are also making a Powerpoint about the excursion to the Rockingham Landfill site to show other schools. The kids are really keen to continue reducing their food waste - they are looking into setting up a compost unit  to reduce this waste further. The kids will visit The Grove in Peppermint Grove to look at how they tackle sustainbility. Can't wait for more updates.
