The children grow vegetables and take care of animals, but they are not playing “Farmville(开心农场)” online. Students at Gateway International School have started farming a small piece of land in the school. The students in the school are from different countries, such as Malaysia and the Philippines.

“To make the children selfreliant and develop friendship between children from different countries, we asked them to grow vegetables. They were excited about the idea,” said Grace Alwyn, the head teacher of the school. “They give part of the harvest to us and we cook it for them. We are planning to ask the parents to buy the vegetables planted by the children. This will also teach them the importance of money.”

The students are also encouraged to keep pets. They feed the animals in the morning and check on them through the day. It's a good way for them to learn to be responsible.

Pritesh, a student in Grade 8, said, “I understand how farmers work. As we grow the vegetables ourselves, we don't feel like wasting them. It is a very interesting hobby.”

A parent said happily, “Through farming, they are learning to love the environment. They will learn a lot from these activities.”
