ECO-X Summary from Elhanan

From the ECO-X Club


Dear all,

Since the beginning of the year and during the recent months in particular, the ECO-X club has been operating actively to help the environment of our school to support the theme of ecology. We would like to share with you some of the latest events that were organized by the club and could be evidently observed around the AIS campus.

On October 22, a bake sale was conducted during the lunch of the high school and after the academic day of that date. This successful fundraiser obtained a total amount of 700 NIS for the continuation of the club activity.

Another fundraiser was arranged by the initiation of the club members for the "Soccer Tournament" of November 13. With the responsibility and attitude of the students, this event has been proven to be fruitful as well, raising 900 NIS.

Besides these occasions, the ECO-X club has also arranged a bike trip for its members and any other interested attendees. This trip, which was scheduled for November the 15 through the 16, rode the participants to the Tabor Mountain on the Lower Galilee of the north. The students as well as the guiders Mr. Margolis and Mrs. Wescott enjoyed the biking routes, which were accompanied with impressive landscapes and group activities. The ECO-X trips are open to the wide community and intend to promote the care for the ecological environment and simultaneously the fun that the participants gather.

In addition, the club members meeting on a fixed basis on Thursdays of day 2's keep developing their personal projects in association with ecology. As some of the projects were already executed, furthermore of them will be presented around campus soon. Specific progress reports of them will be announced in the newspaper.

Have a great weekend!
