Kingdom of Bhutan
Nature Club
Phuntshothang Middle Secondary School
'Bringing young minds close to their environment and helping to create a vibrant community of environmentally aware citizens'
Through active participation in a range of hands-on activities, PMSS's Nature Club seeks to inspire an active interest in nature, provide an opportunity for pupils to experience the life of a biodiversity scientist/ conservationist, and and to grow a life-long love of the Kingdom's rich natural environment.
PMSS's Nature Club is part of RSPN's (Royal Society for Protection of Nature) growing commitment to 'Environment Education for Change' and especially its commitment to Nature Clubs in schools.
The Nature Club is open to all in the school. There are a wide range of activities including observing, identifying, recording and gathering important scientific data about birds and bats. Other activities include learning about the importance of trees and environmental protection, including waste management.
With strong support from the School's Principal and a dedication to a 'Green environment', we seek to develop a range of soft and technical skills, including teamwork, responsibility, caring for others, creativity, and problem solving.
