SMK St. George's visit on the 25th of May








Students from SMK St. George, Penang, visited our school on the 25th of May. The aim of their visit was to see how our school is run as well as to learn about the various activities held in Sri Aman. They arrived in our school compound at about 10 am and were seated in the school hall. The event kicked off with a welcoming speech by Ashwini, a Form 4 prefect who headed the event of the day. Then, it was time for the slide show presentation on various environmental activities held in Sri Aman which was given by our Toyota Eco Rangers Club president, Farhanah. 


The students were then entertained with many games and they enjoyed themselves. About 11.30 am, they were served with scrumptious food ordered from the school canteen. After they had their brunch, they were brought around the school for an eco tour. They first visited the Solar Station whereby Eishatur and Alina explained to them about the solar system which is located at our PIBG Block. Then, they proceeded to the Herbs Garden. Angela and Siti Sarah, the leaders of our Herbs Garden, explained to them about the various herbs at our garden and showed them our very own sprinkler system at the herbs garden. The students were impressed with the effort we had put in to make the herbs garden a success. They also asked a few questions to Angela and Sarah about the uses of the herbs. The Rainwater Harvesting System which is located near the Surau was their next pit stop. They were given a brief explanation by Atikah and Niraanjana on how the system works. Atikah’s and Niraa’s explanation was precise and detailed to the extent that they had no room to ask questions. 

As a whole, they enjoyed the tour organized by our Eco Team and we, the members of Eco Rangers, hope that more events like this will be held in the future. Similar events would be a great opportunity for us to gain exposure and build our self-confidence.
