A Special Shout Out To Some Of The Amazing Student..

A special shout out to some of the amazing students taking part in our EcoWira programme with @leapedservices 🎉

SMK Seri Paka have put their efforts into a project to create their own sea-worthy vessel. As the school is in a community which is strongly connected with the local beaches and ocean life of the region, it was only right the students developed their own Kayak, via their EcoWira project – “My Kayak”. This project required the students to use accessible items and waste – the base of the kayak is built from repurposed plywood, which is then coated with resin, which is made from polystyrene, which was found during beach clean-ups, along with a controlled amount of petrol. The resin coating makes the wooden kayak ready for use on the ocean waves. The impact of being able to make their own kayak has wide ranging benefits for all community members, and is a great example of the interconnectedness of this project, its place, and its usefulness on a wider scale.

Amazing work!
