A new clue about our class pet...

a LOT of you have been asking "what kind of food does our class pet like to eat?"

Some guidelines (and a hint) if you want to bring in food:

YES (Delicious to our pet)

Vegetable & fruit waste (citrus fruit should be added in moderation when using smaller bins)

  • Shredded newspaper, used paper towels (common sense applies here), cardboard (great idea to add these carbon rich materials at the same time you add any wet food waste)
  • Egg shells (best if ground up and in moderation)
  • Coffee grounds
  • Tea bags

NO way! (disgusting)

  • Human/pet waste
  • Non biodegradable materials
  • Dairy/meat
  • Oils/grease
  • Harsh chemicals
