At the end of June, the winning class of the contest Mata ora no Tetiaroa discovered the atoll of Tetiaroa !
After having worked for months in their class of Anne Marie Javouhey’s school in order to develop a production on the subjects of Polynesian biodiversity, culture and the atoll of Tetiaroa’s renewable energies, the 22 pupils, accompanied by their teacher Taria Vaiho, discovered the riches of this atoll with their own eyes !
The full-day excursion started with a green tour led by Alban, environmental manager for The Brando Eco-Resort. This tour included the discovery of the eco-station managed by Tetiaroa Society, of eco-responsible facilities, of the SWAC system, of waste recycling, of the sewage treatment system, of the composting system… A lot of ideas for our children to find their future job and innovative measures seen in real life !
The pupils then had lunch in the staff’s cafeteria : a meal offered by the hotel management that made both kids and adults happy !
