There is a large area of land

near the backdoor of our

The school building is made

fully of concrete and glass.

The Mai Po Nature

Reserve in Northwest

Part A: Some measures that deal with the education on the students

1. During IS lessons, for the syllabus of

the Integrated Science, they usually

come across the study in plants and

so, we can set up some activities for

the junior students to grow some

plants which are slow in growth but

proficient in absorbing much carbon

dioxide and giving out oxygen, the

plants then put on the roof of the

school building or the leisure

grounds near the backdoor of school.

The students can visit their product

afterwards and have a memory on

them.

Reasons: The first reason is that

students can plant their own plants

for both recreational and academic

uses. Many students and parents state

that our school is lack of green

plants. All the buildings are made of

concrete. Some surveys shows that

green colour can make the people relax in both their eyes and mentality. In

addition, more plants can help develop the air quality as the surrounding is full of

roads.

2. Arrange outings (e.g. going to Mai

Po Nature Reserve, Hoi Ha Wan

Marine country parks, hiking path in

country parks, Sha Chau and Lung

Kwu Chau Marine Park, Ocean Park,etc.) for students and to teach them



Switching off the monitors

can help reducing electricity

the importance and personal concern of environmental protection and ecological

knowledge. Also, it can be a trip for tense students to relax after rigid studies.

Reasons: The examples above are all countrysides or environmental

educational areas. They are rich in living things and can be treated as aclassroom of nature.

3. Request students to switching off the

monitors after using computers in the

computer rooms and library in order to

reduce electricity consumption.

Reasons: Usually the electricity

service bill is the second highest

expenditure of schools after the salary

of staff the first. In addition, as

electricity in Hong Kong is manly from

burning of fossil fuels which is harmful to the environment, consume less

electricity is an environmental friendly movement.

4. Encourage students to take more rides

on public transports or walk to school

so that the use of fossil fuels such as

petrol can be reduced.

Reasons: This reduces air pollution

while burning the fuels. Meanwhile,

this movement may lead to fewer cars

passing through the roads near the

school and it can reduce the chances of

traffic jams. On the other hand, we can

take part in and support the “Healthy 8,000 steps Campaign” as a daily sport

activity.

Part B: Measures on the hardware

improvement and other areas

5. Encouraging the school’s tuck-shop

Traffic jams always occur

when people go to school or



The three colours recycle

A lot of recyclable

waste is collected

that when selling lunchbox to the students, try not to use foam as the material of

food containers but instead of recyclable dishes or containers.

Reasons: Because foam cannot autolyse or be biodegraded, it occupies a lot of

space and shorten the live of landfill. Also, it is harmful to the environment as itmay emit some toxicant while

decomposing.

6. Install aluminium cans and plastic

bottles recycle bins on each level of the

school’s two main staircase.

Meanwhile, every classroom should

install a waste paper recycle bin besides

the original litterbin. On the other hand,

we encourage janitors to categorize

things that are recyclable, such as waste

paper and aluminium cans, during

cleaning the classroom after the school days.

After gathering the recyclable things, they can

sell them. Then part of money from the recycle

can divide into different sections and each

janitor can get one of them for bonus, thus

motivating themselves to work consciously

and the remaining part can be put into a fund

call “The Green Fund” that used to develop or

support the conservation activities at school

and official expenditure. My experience is that

I was in hurry but after drinking a can of Coke

bought from the seller outside the school, I

want to put it into the cans recycle bin.

However, there is only three recycle bins on the ground floor between the two

basketball court and that is a far way from me and so I throw the can away into

the general bin nearby.

Reasons: As oil, metals and tree are very important resources on the Earth, we

should reuse and recycle them. The bonus from selling the recyclable waste can

motivate the janitors to do their job more properly, consciously and efficiently.

7. Near the front door, install solar energyreceivers and wind power generators

for supplying electricity for lights nearby. Also, these facilities can also be used

as teaching materials.

Reasons: For solar power and wind power, they are reusable energy sources.

Since there are so few sites about solar energy and wind power for visit, they canalso be teaching materials for both physics’ and integrated science’ syllabus.

8. Install a thermometer in each classroom

for reference for teachers and students. When the temperature reaches a certain

value, people can choose whenever switch on or off the air conditioner. Not only

to avoid arguments, but also to reduce electricity consumption.

Reasons: Students and teachers can refer to the temperature and choose

whether they should turn on the air conditioner or not. It helps to reduce

electricity consumption and avoid the air conditioner colder than its optimum

temperature.

9. Add an exhibition booth named “Green Land” at the cover area near the school

main door in order to introduce some new information and

activities concerning environmental protection.

Reasons: It is a way to educate the pupils and provide

some information for them.

10. To avoid squanders of water or electricity, stick some

proverbs (stickers, posters) such as “Turn off the

electrical appliances before you leave this room” and

“Water is not for games” at lavatories’ hand basins and

classrooms’ electrical switches to tell the students not to

waste water and electricity.

Reasons: Both water and electricity are important

resources. Sticking proverbs at these places can remind

the users not to squander those important resources.

11. Encourage teachers to best choosing both-sided

said that he always use both-

sided printing methods except

some cutting activities.

printing methods when preparing notes and supplementary materials for students

in order to consume less paper.

Reasons: Economizing the use of paper can reduce the cutting of trees in many

forests in rich countries because forests are the “Green Lungs”, which means theoxygen producer of our Earth. They are very essential to all the living things.

12. The workers of the construction site

near the school should spread water on

the area that had to be dug or other

construction.

Reasons: The construction activities may

give out a lot of dust and they may worsen the

air quality and the environment nearby may

cover a layer of dust. Spreading water on to the

area can help reduce the dust emitted into air.
