RHCDO embark upon Environmental Education

 

At a time when the environment is being destroyed in more ways than one and we ourselves are to blame for most of it, it is important to start acting on its regeneration. We have to get conscious and act for the preservation of our environment and ecosystem.

 

AWARENESS:

Children should be taught to care for their surroundings at a very early age.

RHCDO is concern for the environment and teach local people (childrens and adults) to plant trees and recycling throught many and varied actions. 

 

We already plant 165 trees with the Rose Hall Government School and registered for the Treelympics( it's a  trees planting worldwide competition). 

 

ACTIONS:

In patnership with Richmond Vale Academy (RVA) we already have done many actions for the preservation and protection of our environment.

 

For The World Environmental day in 2014, we recycled about 90 kg of plastic bottles and cans , we are planning to have our own reccycling point from the end of 2014 and raise awarness about wastes.

Twice a year we invole local childrens, students and volunteers from Richmond Vale Academy to come to Rose Hall and participate in the river clean up. We care very much for our rivers and Falls, they are very important for our community life and customs.  

 

RHCDO educate farmers to grow and sell organic food. To promote their business we encourage the farmers to create cooperatives and diversify their cultures. Rose Hall aim for a self-sustainable farming.
