Hydroponic farming gives pupils hands-on experience

Green initiative: The hydroponic farming system at SJK(C) Foon Yew 2 involves 1,275 pupils and 70 teachers where they can also learn entrepreneurial skills through modern and green technology.

JOHOR BARU: A primary school here has brought its environmental initiatives to the next level by setting up two hydroponic farming systems to give pupils a hands-on learning experience.

SJK(C) Foon Yew 2 headmaster Ramer Chong said the project, which started early this month, was the latest addition to its ongoing environmental programmes.
