The visitors were welcomed by the Director and Facility Manager and guided on a special eco tour of the school building, starting with the roof where they could see the photovoltaic system and the green roof facility. The guests discussed the details of the project implementation with the Facility Manager, Mr. Scheida, as well the approximate costs involved in maintaining the facilities. Furthermore, the guests walked to the EcoLab and had an interesting discussion with Mrs. Marti Hendrichs, the Eco Agenda Coordinator and Sustainability Education Consultant at VIS, who briefed them on the school's platform of education for sustainable development. The guests were very impressed with our sustainable thinking in terms of premises development and biodiversity focus, as well as proactively educating our students for becoming responsible global citizens with meaningful sustainable actions.
