She encouraged the pupils to take the exercise seriously, saying that each pupil and teacher is expected to plant a seedling and track its growth to maturity. She added that awards will be given to pupils and teachers whose plants grow well.

The Coordinator of Learning, Development and Security of the Jospong Group, Brigadier General Michael Akpatsu noted that motivation would be a key driving force in ensuring that the pupils monitor their plants.
“We shall ensure that this exercise becomes a national contest where individuals who grow their trees would be awarded. Trees play a major role in our lives and that is why we must take this exercise seriously” he admonished the pupils.
The Zoomlion Foundation’s Zoomkids Club has members in many schools across the country with the ultimate aim to promote good sanitation and conservation practices to safeguard the environment.
