Roots & Shoots sharing

Vivian and Zek Min went for the Roots & Shoots seminars on Saturday April 21st at the Global Indian International School in Queenstown, a sharing hosted by the Jane Goodall Institute. We were honoured to be invited, and grateful, as this event allowed us to widen our social network and foster contacts with others who share a similar interest in butterflies and urban nature.

There were some speakers who discussed about some environmental projects such as raising awareness about feeding monkeys and water conservation.

                                                 

                
Afterwards, we had a round table discussion. We split into small groups and discussed various topics. This in particular was interesting as all of us in the group had different backgrounds, ideas and knowledge of the environment, and the discussion allowed us to exchange ideas and learn from each other.

At the end of the gathering, a group of people approached us and asked if we would like to join them on a nature walk for their project. Apparently, they had asked our seniors (Project F.U.N.) last year, however they were not able to sustain their connections with them and they hoped that we would be able to do more with them this year. Something exciting to look forward to!
