This year’s school excursion took our students on an unforgettable journey to Green Camp Bali, an eco-educational camp nestled in the heart of Bali’s lush greenery. The experience was both adventurous and enlightening, offering our young learners the opportunity to connect with nature while gaining hands-on experience in sustainable living.

From the moment we arrived, the students were immersed in activities that sparked their curiosity and fostered teamwork. Highlights of the trip included engaging eco-friendly initiatives, planting-to-table cooking sessions, thrilling adventure like kayaking and skill challenging activities;  all of which contributed to an enriching and memorable learning experience.

MasterChef Challenge

Students were challenged to work together in a team, cooking food using the ingredients provided. They dis not just learn cooking but also learnt where the ingredients came from. They work well in planning and cooking the food.

Cooking wholeheartedly surely will make the food even tastier.

Turns out they are really great chefs!

Night Safari

Night Safari was a thrilling adventure! Children explored the wilderness under moonlight, spotting nocturnal animals and experiencing the magic of nature after dark.

Mangrove Planting

Students learnt the benefits and importance of mangrove plants for our community and even for our planet. They took part in planting the mangrove seed in the designated area and have contributed in keeping our planet green and healthy.

Kayaking

Kayaking in pairs was an exciting team-building experience for the students! They learnt co-ordination and trust as they paddled together, navigating the waters, enjoying the thrill of adventure in a beautiful natural setting while observing the different varieties of mangrove trees on the river banks. 

Bamboo Paper Making

Students learnt about the history of making paper and were introduced to ways of making paper from scratch using bamboo leaves and old newspapers. They worked collaboratively and once the the sheets were dry, they used it to write letters and brought them home.
