Outdoor Education
- The student has learned about the local flora and fauna by observing and identifying different plants and animals in the outdoor environment.
- Through the activity, the student has gained hands-on experience in setting up a campsite, including pitching a tent, building a campfire, and practicing proper outdoor safety measures.
