On February 14, 2025, the Parent Council (GEB – Gesamtelternbeirat) of the German European School Manila (GESM) organized a free hands-on Hydroponics Workshop for parents. Led by GESM Operations Officer Mr. Nelson Celis Jr., participants gained practical insights into the fundamentals of hydroponics, learned how it differs from aquaponics, and even had the chance to plant their own seedlings.
As a special bonus, attendees were given a tour of the school’s campus garden, located near the gate. This green space serves as a learning hub for students and teachers, supporting science classes and collaborative projects. The garden features both hydroponics and aquaponics systems, providing students with real-world exposure to sustainable agriculture.
Through this workshop, GESM not only promoted awareness of innovative farming techniques but also strengthened the connection between the school and its parent community—fostering a collaborative learning culture.
