The importance of conserving the environment and fostering a positive relationship with it is very crucial to students learning for future of sustainable cities and communities.
Students of Classes 4 & 5 have initiated a project themed “Composting: Nature’s Way to Recycling”. This project aims to bring awareness about importance of preserving the environment, build a healthy relationship with it and convert waste into nutrient-rich soil.
The inspiration behind the project is emphasis on Learner agency that fosters the critical thinking and problem-solving abilities required for student achievement.

The distinct purposes of the project outlines the disposal of leaves, grass clippings, or food scraps and as a focus for scientific exploration by reducing food waste at home. Students will have hands on experience about more sustainable ways of living and households living sustainably and support UN Sustainable Development Goal 1: No Poverty , Goal 2: Zero Hunger, Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production and Goal 13: Climate Action.
The initiative by the students’ investigations can be used to improve composting systems .
