The Green School Bali<\/h2>\n

We were very impressed when we arrived at the Green School, by its sustainable structure and its location surrounded by trees and water.<\/p>\n

At first, we arrived at the Green camp which is next to the Green School. It provides housing or camping for people staying for a weekend or people like us who want to stay near the Green School for a few days. The \u2018Yurts\u2019 are completely made out of wood and bamboo and the toilets use composting in order to reduce the amount of water that is used and also provide a source of fertiliser for big trees (see more info here<\/a>). The camp is in the middle of the forest and next to a river. If you go down the hill and cross the river you arrive at the Green School. There, the buildings are also made of bamboo and most learning areas are situated in bamboo constructions in the nature. We are sure that this learning environment surrounded by nature must be greatly beneficial for all students and teachers.<\/p>\n

May 26: Presentation of The Ball at the School Assembly<\/h2>\n

On May 26, we were invited to present The Ball at the Friday School Assembly of the Green School. Kate, who works on sustainability efforts at the Green School, headed and signed The Ball and pledged for \u201clove for all\u201d on behalf of the Green School. At the school festival afterwards, many more students and parents signed The Ball and made pledges. We also connected with students who do their \u201cQuest\u201d projects on social and environmental topics. For example, we connected with Bodhan, who organizes matches with students from the school with a local team in Batuan. We decided to join his match on the following Sunday and bring The Ball to Batuan.<\/p>\n

May 28: Mixed Fairplay Football Games with Batuan team<\/h2>\n

Bodhan, an 8th grader at Green School Bali, organizes football matches with a local community for his \u201cQuest\u201d project. He also connects the games to rubbish clean ups in the community.<\/p>\n

On May 28, The Ball joined the football match and we held a Fairplay Football session. We mixed the teams (which was new to some of the players) and played with our \u2018stop motion\u2019 and no dribbling rule. Although some of the footballers felt like they wanted to dribble, the fairplay rules helped to run a fair and inclusive game. Thank you also to Coach Dennis, who volunteers his time to help out with coaching the kids!<\/p>\n
