Firstly Mr Hunter found a bath and brought it to school. Secondly Sue's husband built a frame for it. Then we had to clean it Manawa , Jaedon and Ruarri poured fresh water in the bath. Next we studied and observed the old worm farm and some dead flies on the windowsill. After that we discussed problems between Pro's and Con's, some people might tip it over if there was no frame. Finally we needed a lid and a lock to keep it from being vandalized. Today we will deign the front of our worm farm, its going to be awesome everyone is going to be apart of it, it is going to be amazing. Later on we transferred the worms from room 14 to the bath. Then we got mesh or chicken wire as some might call it because we don't want the worms to get out of the bath.We had to add gravel and rocks to it to make it not so easy to get out but they can't any way. Then we added soil. Some people had to save the worms it was very gross. Roy had to add a lid to it, it looks really awesome but gross. Luke and Tyrone got some apple cores and a lot of things. Jack gave the food to the worms but before that jack got in the bath and they love it. To conclude the worms will give us juice disposal and I feel great because the worms are out side in there normal heritage they are ready to rock and roll and give us juice.

St clair school worm farm


Some people from room 13 got chosen to paint a front cover for the St Clair school worm farm. It has apple cores, banana skins and worms are on it. This cover is going to go on the front bit on the worm farm. by D'Arcy

St Clair worm farm


firstly Mr H found a bath on Richardson street with a free sign on it and brought it to school. Secondly Sue's husband built a frame. Then we cleaned out the bath.
Next we observed the old worm farm it smelt like a corpse flower, then we saw the window sill it had 100's of dead flies on it it looked like a fallen army. We lifted the lid and there was maggot eggs under the lid ewww! Then flies shot out like a swarm of bees.
After we discussed the pros and cons of the two worm farms. we talked about teenagers destroying it and birds eating the worms in the end we decided we needed a lid and a lock. We found out that we are not to feed them citrus.
The next day we viewed a school called Melville intermediate's blog they also had a worm farm!

The Brilliant Frame Sue's husband did

The Old Rotten worm farm

Rm 13 Wriggle's farm

Wriggles Farm

Firstly Mr Hunter found an old bath tub outside someones house for free. He decided to take it for our worm farm.

Secondly Miss C's husband built a frame for the bath tub to keep it steady so it didn't fall over. Miss C's husband did a brilliant job at building the frame.

Then Manawa, Jaedon and Ruarri filled up buckets of water to splash the bath tub clean. when they where splashing the bath tub clean some of us got to close to the bath tub and got a bit wet.

Next we studied/observed the old worm farm to see the Pros and Con's. As soon as we stepped 2 meter's close it smelt so bad it was like being trapped in dumpster land where all the scraps and rubbish goes.Mr Hunter showed us the inside then he lifted up the lid. On the lid was heaps of maggot egg's that made some our stomach's flip.

After that we went into the class and looked at another schools worm farm. Then we did a chart for the Pros and Con's for the worm farm being outside and inside.

Finally we decided we needed a lid, chicken wire and rocks. We asked Rory to kindly build a lid and to kindly give us some chicken wire. In no time the lid was done. Miss Faithful kindly gave us some rocks.

But That's Just the Beginning Of Our Wriggly Journey!
