Transforming Migowa School into a Green School

A green school is a school where students are surrounded by trees, a vegetable garden, toilets, and clean water points. It is a school where we can learn good eco-responsible behaviors at an early age and train a new generation that is more respectful of the environment.

In most schools, children are exposed to an unhealthy environment. They do not have toilets or water points to wash their hands and drink water. Green schools are the solution through Songa Green, a youth initiative to increase environmental conservation, combat climate change and offer environmental education for a greener future, Migowa Secondary School demonstrated her ability to establish a greener environment through planting trees in the month of October.

The exercise dubbed Migowa Tree Planting Week enabled the students to take advantage of the long rains and engaged in the noble project of tree planting.

 The coordinator of Songa Green Initiate, Mr. Byrone Paul thanked all the teachers and students who took part in the tree planting project.
