YAWA visit

YAWA's visits to our school has always been of utmost importance in the eyes of the Sri Aman Eco Rangers, and  there is always much to prepare prior to their visit. The slideshow has to be updated, the presenters of the slideshow have to practice, and of course, the herbs garden has to be meticulously weeded and made to appear as perfect as possible. 

Finally, on the 25^th August 2010, two YAWA representatives made their long-awaited visit to our school to check on our progress. The day started off with a short speech by Farhanah and Atikah followed by a self-introduction by every member, where they also mentioned the positions they held in the club following which a video presentation about the projects we carried out in school was shown to the representatives.

Farhanah and Atikah then showed the two representatives our 2010 Toyota Eco Rangers’ t-shirt and our badge. The badge is worn by members to school daily to show that they are part of the Toyota Eco Rangers club. 

Next, Elsa Athira and Angela Chong presented the slideshow created by the head of multimedia, Chong Soo Sun which showcased everything about our club, from the organization chart to the various plants we have, and even our current and future projects. After the very detailed presentation by Elsa and Angela, the two representatives were brought around the school to see the progress on our plants and projects. 

They were first shown the Mini Eco Forest followed by our Fruit Orchard. The tour then continued with a visit to our Herbs Garden. They were also shown our bottled bio-enzymes, and were impressed by the fact that we used citrus fruits to remove usually unpleasant odour of bio-enzymes. Before the two representatives left our school, they graciously agreed to allow us to take a few pictures to commemorate their visit to our school, on top of giving us a few tips and ideas on how to improve the projects we are working on.

The representatives' visit to our school was both enlightening and interesting at the same time. We gained some insight on the things we need to improve on, on top of opinions and ideas which we value highly. We would like to thank these representatives from the bottom of our hearts for their visit which has done us so much good.
