SKIT PART:

Voice over: Hi Everyone, I’m here to teach you a simple thing that we can do to help each other and your gardening environment. Look there’s Keila and Letisha, they’re working in their garden.

Keila: hey what's that over there?...It looks like a...

Letisha: I think it’s a worm farm or something.

LETISHA / KEILA - Opens up box then looks in...

LEADER WORM: Welcome to the wonderful land of worms and composting.

Worm assistant: Compost!, Do you know what compost is?

Compost is when you put organic waste like - Food scraps, dead plants or shredded paper in a big pile and let them break down until it turns into a rich garden soil.

Keila: wow that sounds so cool!!

LEADER WORM: Did you know that when leaves fall off a tree the bugs like worms, spiders and snails eat the leafs and then the leaves break down into the soil, and the tree feeds upon it and the nutrients go back up onto the tree, then once spring comes the leaves that the worms, snails and spiders ate grow again, we call it nature's recycling system. Don’t you think thats AMAZING?!

Letisha: that is amazing!!

Worm assistant: Do you know why you shouldn’t bury your rubbish at home?

Well it is Because when you dig a hole in the ground and you put nappies, cans and bottles, all of the liquid from the rubbish will then drip to the bottom of the hole and it will create a toxic chemical called Leachate.

LEADER WORM: Yes that’s right!! The Leachate soaks the earth with this toxic chemical and sadly that where all the human bury their water pipes. These water pipes are buried in this toxic area and eventually the toxic will get into the human’s clean water supply.

Keila: Ohh that sounds awful because all the humans who will drink from this water supply will feel sick or worse… DIE!

letisha: WOW!! Now I know that we are making the water we drink unsafe.

Keila: YES! We need to tell somebody, because if we don’t then we may get sick, and we won't be able to go to school or garden.

Tumanako: HEY! I think you forgot about us, I mean we're here too, you know?…

Parehuia: Yeah, we help with this growing thing too. Yet we don't think they want to know that part…

ALL SLATERS: (laughing)

Parehuia: shhh let the worms speak about us, because we don't know that much.

Letisha: Thank you! I think you children might know a little bit about our friends and how they tend to help us with the growth and recycling of the plants.

Tumanako: we slater's eat the things that the worms cannot.

ALL WORMS: also did you know that us worms can eat up to 10x our own weight? Isn’t that CRAZY…

Tumanako: not even I can do that you're just trying to make them go WOW…

ALL WORMS: (frowns)

LEADER WORM: well these were fun facts….. Don't you think WORMS??

ALL WORMS: YES!!

Tumanako: I think these are very good facts. DON’T YOU GARDENERS THINK THE SAME?
