SMA Repah Students Develop Innovative 'Smart Worm Bin' for Vermicomposting

Students at Sekolah Menengah Agama Repah are gaining hands-on experience in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) through innovative projects, fostering talent for the nation's future workforce. One such initiative is the 'Smart Worm Bin,' an intelligent system designed to automate temperature and humidity control for vermicomposting.

This smart system ensures a stable composting process, preventing the loss or migration of composting worms. The development of the Smart Worm Bin has ignited a passion for STEM among the students, encouraging them to explore technological advancements and their practical applications.

Sayyed Izzul Ziqri Sayuti, a Form Three student, described his participation as a fun and enriching experience, providing new insights into technological innovation and teamwork. He expressed a desire to join similar competitions to further his learning and gain unforgettable experiences. Sayuti emphasized the importance of providing more students with opportunities to engage in innovation programs to bring recognition to their schools.

"To my friends, don't be afraid to join competitions because through programs like these, you will gain a lot of experience and knowledge that cannot be bought anywhere," he stated. Ahmad Farish Hakeem Abdullah, a Form Four student, highlighted how the Smart Worm Bin project offered him opportunities to collaborate in a team, solve problems, and present ideas effectively. The project aligns with the principles of Industry 4.0, incorporating elements of automation and the Internet of Things (IoT) in agricultural and waste management sectors.
