Biology Field trip: Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden
A Biology field trip to Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden was organized for S.6S1 on 29 June 2011 to investigate plant ecology and biodiversity. By now, students have understood how the Garden has paid concerted efforts in preserving precious plant species, namely orchids, ferns and Cyatheaceae plants. In addition, students visited Piers Jacobs Wildlife Sanctuary, Insect House, Greenhouses and Eco-garden, exploring nature practically through Nature Walk and Fern Walk to realize the importance of maintaining sustainability on environmental conservation.
