Green Awareness

Panyaden School wants to show how to live an environmentally mindful life with a low carbon footprint. We want to teach the children as well as the community that we live in, how to live a life in harmony with nature and that showing respect for our environment enhances the quality of our lives.

The school is built from natural materials: earth, stones and bamboo.

We produce our own bio-fertilizer, treat our waste water and produce biogas for cooking.

We teach our children how to plant rice and grow vegetables without the use of pesticides and to use wood vinegar as insect repellent.

Our rooms are built in a manner that we only need air-conditioning in those rooms that have computers. All other rooms are cooled and ventilated through the choice of materials and way they are built. As such we use very little electricity.
