FUTURE GREEN THUMB LEADER

So far, we have arranged the program into two big agendas: High School Green Leaders Camp intended for High school students to get an experience of creating a garden, farming and living sustainable life on Sat-Sun, 16-17 September 2017, and Elementary Green Leaders Camp where the farming and gardening tutorial would be given to elementary school students on Saturday, September 23 2017.

The second time, we brought 10 students from Pondok Cina Elementary School. The numbers were small yet their enthusiasm was oustandingly great. We were accompanied by four facilitators and mediated by the same mediator as the first trip. With them, the atmosphere created was more relaxing and playful yet still conductive. As you can see from the photos, the session was extremely interactive from both parties. The students were enjoying really well.

There was a lot of parents who came and suggested us to come to their children’ schools. In the next semester, we’d have four prospective schools that would hold the program. They are Al Azhar Elementary School, Tugu Depok Elementary School, Master Dormitory and Tunas Global School for the extended period.

After evaluating the green journal, we moved the plants that were planted week ago to bigger containers and started painting the used tires. The moving of the plants should’ve been done this week yet because 80% of the plants were failed due to lack of proper nursery, the activity was delayed.

SDN Pondok Cina 2 (Pondok Cina 2 Elementary School), Saturday, April 15 2017  In this particular school, we continued our activity into making a mini garden at the school. The students in group were asked to bring two used tired, six used paint cans and brushes. Since not all of them followed the instruction of bringing certain stuff, the group of students was divided into a group of painting and decorating the tires and cans, while the other group was moving the planted seeds from the egg cartons into the pots in the garden.
