Year 9 Japanese'  Thursday the 18th of March - Excursion to St Leonards This excursion was what I believe to have been a very productive, interesting and most of all an inspiring day. From sustainable class rooms to housing alpacas this school amazed me with its dedication and its constant relating to the foundation in which this school was built upon, giving back to the community. I was astounded by the morals in which were passed through the generations and improved a little bit along the way. This school began so long ago, with the hope that it would continue and proper in the many years to come into a highly sustainable school. I didn’t believe what I was hearing possible until I actually heard and saw the evidence. I was amazed to be informed that their entire working ethic is based upon the sustainability rings, and it somehow always related back. Another intriguing aspect of this school was the effort they must have gone to in order to hunt out the most sustainable electrical appliances they were able to find. From their wind turbines to their passive air-conditioning and their many solar panels, this school never ceased to amaze me. I am now well aware of many environmentally friendly ideas I never even had a clue existed and i feel that through this knowledge I have gained I am able to build upon and help to create a better life for not only myself, but a healthier world for those sharing it with me.
