Why the Green Voices Camp you may ask, some students have expressed great interest in such activities. Therefore after much consideration, I have chosen the Green Voices Camp. The camp allows us to learn about pressing environmental issues and get a hands-on experience of going to East Coast Park for a beach clean-up. By going for a beach clean-up and attending the talk, we would further understand the impacts of our actions if we do not treasure our environment well. Through this camp, we would also develop leadership skills such as cooperation and determination for our future projects as well.
