The Greening School Project Award prize presentation ceremony, organised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), was held today (June 27) at the Kowloon Park Sports Centre. Thirty-seven schools were commended for their meritorious green school projects and contributions to environmental greening.
 
     To enhance students' awareness of greening and interest in horticulture, as well as to beautify school environments, the LCSD provides annual cash subsidies under its Greening School Subsidy Scheme to encourage more greening and planting activities on campuses. The targets of the subsidy scheme are local kindergartens and primary, secondary and special schools. The Greening School Project Award will also be presented to schools to acknowledge their outstanding achievements in campus greening.
 
     Addressing the prize presentation ceremony, the Chief Leisure Manager (Green Campaign) of the LCSD, Ms Tina Tai, said that the Greening School Subsidy Scheme has received an enthusiastic response since its launch, with nearly 900 schools participating this year. She commended the outstanding performance of the award-winning schools, noting that the greening projects have attained a high standard and continue to show steady improvement in quality. Both teachers and students have worked together to create vibrant green spaces, achieving highly encouraging results.
 
     Ms Tai also acknowledged participating schools for their passionate commitment to green education and their valuable contributions, and thanked the adjudicators for their dedicated efforts and professional assessment. Other officiating guests attending today's ceremony included the Immediate Past President of the Hong Kong Institute of Landscape Architects, Mr Paul Chan; former non-official member of the Community Involvement Committee on Greening under the Greening, Landscape and Tree Management Section of the Development Bureau, Dr Angie Ng; and the Chief School Development Officer (Wan Chai and Islands) of the Education Bureau, Ms Ivy Man.
