I am concerned about the river being close to the school.
Students are not allowed access to the river, except during supervised lesson periods. Lifebuoys are sited on both sides of the river for use in emergency situations.
Are there snakes in the classrooms?
To ensure the campus is as free as possible of snakes, the school employs Pak Cobra who is an expert on snake habitats. He removes any snakes he finds and returns them to the jungle away from the campus.
Is the campus secure?
Green School enjoys 24 hour security protection. The officers are easy to spot with their colourful sarongs and udeng (headwear).
I heard about the toilets being composting toilets. Are they smelly?
Actually no. The toilets are simple, easy to use and less smelly than regular school toilets. It would be easy to be unaware that the toilet was any different from a regular one.
