Mayfield West Demonstration school go all ORANGE for the orangutan

Mayfield West Demonstration school  had a fantastic day wearing orange (and some green and brown) to help raise money for the Australian Orangutan Project.  The whole school go involved and went “Wild about Orangutans”  They drew a large tree on the floor and placed their money around the outline.  They have also enjoyed having their classroom “Pongos” come to explore the playground each day and take them home for sleepover visits at the students’ homes.  Pongo’s Diary is very eventful!  All round it has been a wonderful learning experience.

    Thankyou for raising my awareness of the presence of palm oil in everyday food. My family will be eliminating these items from our diet as of today! We will also be asking more questions about the origin of ‘vegetable oil’ in foods.

AOEP is a conservation advocacy program. By registering you will have access to downloads which you can incorporate into your classroom activities. It is hoped that some of the activities will inspire the children to create their own orangutan activities. Our hope is that once you become aware of the plight of the orangutan, you will be inspired to become part of the solution!
