The Formal Education Committee of RCE Tongyeong visited RCE Penang as part of its 'Teacher Cooperation Training' programme mid last month, from 15-19 January, 2020. The ten members, consisting of elementary school principals and teachers visited a school in Penang, where they learnt about the 'GO GREEN' project in conjunction with RCE Penang, as well as school gardening cases using water-saving systems.

In addition, they visited Universiti Sains Malaysia, the Secretariat of RCE Penang, which included a visit to its Eco Campus, a collaborative workshop, and an expedition where participants could witness the Merbok Mangrove reforestation, in which they planted mangrove trees and learned about the ecological and regional importance of mangroves.
