Room Fifteen's Action Plan for 2010
As mentioned in a message to the Enviro team earlier this year, room 15 is monitoring the attitude of users within the school and users from the nearby community to the compost box. We are concerned about the numerous unsavoury unmentionables we have had to remove from the compost box since it was completed last year.
 * Monday 21 June 2010**

Before building we surveyed the spot and other potentially better locations within the school confines. We knew the place where the old compost site was, and where we eventually had to build the new one, was in fact a thoroughfare for locals who scale the perimeter fence right next to the compost site. Room 15 had two prefered sites but for one reason or the other these were not made available to us. Despite that room 15 2009 completed their planning and built the "COMPOST BOX" and also had the task of rejuvenating the cultural garden to its original glory.

We know that a future task will be to create procedures to inform the school on how to use this compost system, but this will not help with those from the community who use the compost box as a disposal site.


 * Options**: move the compost, build a high fence, put a lid on...?


 * PS**. If you would like to view this lovely compost box in 3D, touch it, smell the compost being made and view the surrounding area, call in at room 15 and one of our lovely children will be happy to give you a guided tour. Perhaps you have some tips for us.
