Mission accomplished: Island School tree-planting a success

The first of a series of tree-planting events by the students of The Island School took place on November 24, 2023 with great success.

Our aim and objective through this tree-planting programme was to support the environment, help reforest the areas around our School, especially after last summer’s devastating fires, and contribute to improving the quality of life of local residents.

Environmental awareness is a key part of our school’s educational mission, as well as our participation in revitalising the wider area, which we promote via other activities as well, in cooperation with neighbouring communities.

The Island School thanks the Forestry Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment for their cooperation, and for providing the saplings. Many thanks also go out to the media who covered the event, sending a positive message to the wider community.

Island School students are leading the way to a better environment. Because when we all desire a common outcome, together, we can achieve it!
