Bonding with Taman Negeri Selangor

To create a bond between young people and Taman Negeri Selangor, TrEES has initiated a school programme with over 20 schools from Selangor, Putrajaya and KL.

Visiting the Park to experience first hand the beauty of the forests of Taman Negeri Selangor is a very important part of the programme.  TrEES has begun taking students from the participating schools for fieldtrips to Sg. Tekala Recreation Forest, one of the many recreation sites in the Park.

During the fieldtrips, students have a wonderful time exploring the forest, investigating life in the stream, learning the interconnection between species and habitats, and just having a fantastic time splashing in the river.  For so many of the students, it is a rare opportunity that they all truly enjoy.

TrEES School Programme is sponsored by CIMB Foundation through its Community Links Programme.  The programme is run in partnership with the Selangor Forestry Department, the Department of Minerals and Geoscience Selangor & WP, and Lembaga Urus Air Selangor (LUAS).  The programme has the approval of the Ministry of Education and the respective Education Departments.
