Submitted by Phil Stride from the Sustainable Solutions Foundation. Lamma-zine story to follow in a few days.

I hope that this will be of great use to all teachers, especially those living on Lamma!

Many teachers take a keen interest in environmental and animal welfare issues and are keen to inspire their students to also take an interest. A lot of the educational material that we found on the internet was irrelevant for Hong Kong, so a group of us have produced some teaching material of our own. The project was a collaboration of many Lamma residents. These include the writers, proof readers, translators, a cartoonist, a website designer, printers.the
list goes on.

We are pleased to announce that our new website http://www.crazyadventures.com.hk is now up and running and the initial feedback from users has been fantastic. We think it's going to be a hit!

On the website there are 7 PowerPoint presentations that can be downloaded for free and used on an overhead projector or printed as flashcards for use in small groups. Some of the presentations cover animal welfare and others concern environmental issues such as air pollution and recycling. Children love the cartoons and the interactive nature of the presentations.

In order to promote the website, 2000 books have been printed and sent out to most the primary schools and youth groups in Hong Kong. Nintendo have kindly donated some Nintendo DS computer games which we are using as prizes in a competition to inspire children to learn more about the environment and animal welfare. A printable poster can be downloaded from the website which can be put up in a school youth group, etc.

We hope that you will enjoy using the "Crazy Adventures" website.
