On a sunny day, grade 8 students enjoyed the beauty of nature that inspired them to write amazing poems to appreciate its features like: pine trees, oak trees, green grass, and the mountains. Below is some selected lines.
Dear nature live so free
Where no one abuses a tree…
Nature with every single blessing
It’s such a beauty we are missing…
The birds fly high
Their kingdom is the sky…
I’m like a mountain full of snow
I’m like the wind with anger may blow…
Having a rich, green natural field around the school enhances students’ learning, interests, and attitude towards their local environment. Therefore, new teaching methods like inquiry, experiments, projects, and discovery are implemented in order to develop students’ cognitive, physical, emotional, and social skills needed to learn about the environment, in the environment, and for the environment. The school vision is to be a green eco friendly school in three major domains: curriculum, management of resources, and management of school grounds.
