Hackable is a project organised by the Special Projects Committee of the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) Club. In Hackable 2.0, MAE students utilised their mechanical and technical skills to build compost machines for primary schools. A collaborative effort with primary schools, the project provided young students a chance to learn about composting and an opportunity to put in practice recycling their unfinished food.

A total of two compost machines were completed in two months, and delivered to Jurong West Primary School and Boon Lay Gardens Primary School.

Watch the video below to find out more about the compost machine.

 

“Hackable 2.0 is a meaningful project. I learned a lot, while contributing to the greater good at the same time.” Toh Si Yao, Participant
