I work with some brilliant young people. Part 1

These two photos were taken at Vang Vieng, about 150km north of Vientiane when I visited in December with Tom and Will - who can be seen jumping into the blue lagoon.

Link to Vang Vieng Ecotourism video

Vang Vieng's main attraction is its spectacular setting as it is souKarst Mountains on the Nam Song and eco tourism.  

Noni Flint in Grade 10 investigated Ecotourism in Vang Vieng and how it supports economic development for the locals in  her Personal Project.  

The Personal Project is a major piece of work which requires research, developing specifications for a product, making the product, writing about there learning throughout the process and finally an exhibition. Most of the work is completed out of school hours.  The exhibition on Wednesday evening was fantastic and interesting with some amazing work produced by the Grade 10 students.

Noni produced a fantastic video which can be found on Youtube.  Please spend a few minutes to have a look at it.
