#GivingTuesday
Giving Tuesday is a global initiative that encourages generosity.
As part of the Campus Greening Project, we are planning to install a "green island" in front of the school. This island will include one tree from our current parking lot and seating areas. (Info: all trees currently growing at the parking lot need to be removed or given away due to the planned extension building.)
As part of our Campus Greening Project, we are excited to announce plans for a new "green island" at the front of our school. This space will feature a tree relocated from our current parking lot, along with thoughtfully designed seating areas.
The initiative stems from the necessity to clear the parking lot for a planned building extension, which requires the removal or relocation of all existing trees. Our goal is to save as many of these trees as possible by repurposing them within the school grounds.
The new green island will transform the front area of our school into a more inviting, functional, and eco-friendly space. It will provide much-needed seating for students, parents, and visitors who often gather here to wait, meet, and connect.
This project reflects our commitment to sustainability, tree preservation, and enhancing communal spaces. By creating this green island, we take another step toward becoming a greener school while fostering a vibrant and welcoming environment for everyone in our community.
This Giving Tuesday, we are raising funds specifically for the green island to meet our target of 20,000 euros. So far, 14,385 euros have already been raised.
