Today we started with the preparations for our annual Coral Conservation program in cooperation with Harrow International School from Bangkok. On the 16th and the 17th the students from year 13 will participate in a project to restore coral and some of them will get an introduction to scuba diving by enrolling in the Discover Scuba Diving Program. The first day they will assemble a framework made out of pvc piping. The frame will represent the initials of the school followed by the year. In the slideshow you can find the basic tools and materials needed in order to build a simple frame that can do so much in restoring valuable coral.
The second day we head over to Koh Wai, where the corals are transplanted into the frame by the students before being put onto the sea bottom where they can start growing. More about the actual process of the coral transplantation will follow part 2.
