SERVICES
The double composting pit toilets use worms to produce compost that is used to grow food
for the school's feeding program in the Kitchen gardens placed in the edges of the plot,
reducing the use of water and land. The pre-primary school is off-grid maximizing natural
lighting and ventilation for comfort of pupils and caregivers and to enhance stimulation and
concentration. A longitudinal skylight facing south provides ideal zenith indirect light, which
added to the big windows allow for adequate lumens on table surface.
