Hot for Compost

Our Waste Audit identified biodegradable waste that's currently going into landfill, which creates climate changing gases. Now we can hot compost this waste and turn food we don't want into food we do want.

The Year 6 Eco Leaders and Community Care Team had a great time with Tim and Richard, from the Carbon Cycle Company, building our new hot compost boxes. We especially seeing some of the wriggly invertebrates involved. 

We're so grateful to Auckland City Council's Waste Minimisation Fund and The Carbon Cycle Company for helping us set up a hot composting system, so we can be more sustainable.

Find out how the whole community can be involved soon!















Soldier fly larvae are the big digesters - gross and weird and wonderful!
