Activities for Ambassadors

The Environment and Ecology Bureau (EEB) will regularly invite SD Ambassadors and SD Ambassador Leaders to participate in activities through schools. In the past year, EEB organised a number of field trips, including visits to Plover Cove Reservoir and Jordan Valley Park to learn about Hong Kong's renewable energy development projects, and visits to Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden and Hoi Ha Marine Life Centre to appreciate native wildlife and marine life at close range.
