Students from Green Hills Academy have led an environment protection walk meant to encourage both the society and students to engage in activities that keep their surroundings green.
Gaspard Kageza, Green hill’s deputy principle noted that the wakeup call was in line with celebrating the global environmental week starting 5 may this year. “We intend to form a club which will be in charge of conserving environment in the compound and we expect students to replicate this in their homes,” he remarked.
In attendance was Juliette Kabera the director of environment and pollution at the Rwanda Environmental Management Authority (REMA). Students from other schools like Hacky school New York City and Duba Complex School from eastern province participated too.
Kageza further pointed out that their school joined efforts with other students in order to have a bigger voice in exclaiming the role of students in environmental protection. The event was graced by activities such as drama plays and songs talking about the importance of environmental conservation.
