@@Kota Kinabalu City Bird Sanctuary held an Environmental Education Program
for the Kota Kinabalu Bird Sanctuary Teacher Support Group in conjunction
with the World Wetland Day and Asian Wetlands Week 2004. In total, 32 teachers
from various local schools have participated in the event. The Kota Kinabalu
Bird Sanctuary is an important refuge for many migratory birds including
sandpipers and plovers, which stop by the sanctuary between September and
April. During the event, teachers actively participated in various environmental
education activities such as interpretive walk through the bird sanctuary,
and cleaning up rubbish in mangrove forests as a hands-on experience. |
