The Managing Director of Let’s Do It Namibia, Tanswell Rooinasie, urged the public and private sectors to support environmental education projects in schools.
During the donation of trees by Reptile Mineral Resources, worth N$30 thousand, to five schools in Swakopmund.
The Let’s Do It Namibia organisation implemented a tree planting project, the Sustainable Environmental Education Programme (SEEP), in 2022.
SEEP educates learners about sustainable living practises and encourages them to incorporate those principles into their daily lives.
This year, mining exploration company Reptile Minerals Resources has donated 50 fruit and shade trees to the programme.
The five schools were chosen after their participation in SEEP last year, and Namib Primary School is one of the beneficiaries.
Ermien Benjamin, the principal of Namib Primary School, said
“These initiatives are very good because they will teach the youth that they have to reduce, reuse, and recycle so that they can have a better future tomorrow.”
