Vision

The Flagship Living Classroom initiative embodies this vision by integrating innovative learning experiences with tangible contributions to the well-being of our community.
Transforming Learning Through Sustainability – the core of this initiative lies in a holistic educational space—the Living Classroom. By embracing this initiative, we aim to:
Empower Students: Offer students immersive learning experiences that cultivate curiosity, critical thinking, and environmental stewardship.
Address Food Security: Establish a sustainable source of fresh, locally grown produce that can contribute to addressing community food security challenges.
Foster Business Acumen: Equip students with essential business skills by creating a student-run produce market, fostering entrepreneurship, and contributing to community sustainability.
The Living Classroom Model: This visionary classroom comprises three key stations:
Living Wall: A living canvas adorned with flourishing plants, this station immerses students in the world of sustainable growth and environmental interconnectedness.
Aquaponics Tank: An aquatic wonderland, the Aquaponics Tank introduces students to the synergy between aquatic life and plant growth, underscoring nature’s harmonious balance.
Learning Table Station: At the heart of the classroom, the Learning Table Station invites students to individual growing stations, enabling them to learn about diverse cultivation methods and experiment with nurturing plants.
