On Thursday, February 04, 2010 all the students and the school principal were deciding to take the mango tree, the avocado tree, Ranbutan tree and Durian tree to plant surrounding school. As we know Cambodia is an agricultural country most of the people they are farmers and they usually do the farm to adopt their family condition. So the Vogel School is also a sample of other schools in Ratanakiri province to push the agriculture to be progressive.

The below picture are activities while the school principle and schoolchildren were planting the trees.

Remember that before we plant the tree we need to decorate the square to be ready. The square holes was dug two weeks ago. After digging we need to burn the square hole to make more fertilized soils. Below are the squares which the schoolchildren dug last two weeks and start to plant today.

Here are the activities while they were together planting the trees. The school principal is responsible to control and lead the students to plant the trees and tell them how to protect the tree as good. At that time too the students seem understand well and they can plant by themselves.
