The Orchard bubble had a great experience creating a wormery. They were involved in every step of the process. We started off by watching a video instructing us on how to start creating a wormery. It provided us with information on the benefits of having a wormery. The first thing we started doing was drilling lots of holes in our box which took quite a number of days. The children thought this was: \u2018Hard work.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After we had finished drilling the holes in the box it was then time to add our compost into the box to start creating a nice home for our worms. The children were developing their gross motor skills by helping to pour the heavy bag of compost into the box. The children thought that: \u201cThe worms are really going to love their new home.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Miss Maclean had ordered special composting worms from the internet and they had arrived. The children couldn\u2019t believe that you could order worms from the internet. We sat down at group time and looked at the worms and Miss Maclean explained why we needed to use composting worms. The children had even remembered that: \u201cThe wormery helps us recycle\u201d and \u201cthey will help make compost.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0\u00a0<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now that the worms are in their new home the children love to care and look after them everyday. \u201cWe spray the worms to give them a drink.\u201d \u201cWe need to give them our food waste.\u201d The Orchard bubble are attached to their worms and want them moved into the next room we move to.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMiss Maclean can we look at the worms again.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
