Students Say..........
There was a workshop organised by Mr.Nandlal&Mr.Vishvanathan . They taught us the art of composting and the convenience of it.
They demonstrated composting. They also told us about certain organisms that help enrich the compost, such as maggots. And at the end of the session, we received bags of compost with at least one maggot inside. I must say we were disgusted by their appearance but we soon realized their true, precious value.
In the end, it was an enriching experience.
