Our QAK School Eco Club is proud to launch the Composting Initiative, aimed at reducing food and organic waste on campus while promoting sustainable practices. This project will transform everyday school waste into nutrient-rich natural fertilizer to support our school gardens, creating a living example of the circular economy in action.
Students from the QAK Eco Club, Alnawar, Maryam, Hissa, and Reem, are leading Plastic for Cause, a sustainability initiative that collects plastic bottles and caps and other recyclable plastics to support a meaningful social cause. The collected materials will be donated to hospitals or organizations that transform the recycled plastics into prosthetic limbs or any other medical devices for people in need, or to companies that would exchange the recyclables for donation that will be used for the medical cause.
Created by our student Hassan Abdulrahman Al-Kaabi, volunteer member of the QAK Eco Club, Heritage Path is an educational board game that connects Qatari heritage with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in an engaging and interactive way. Players move across a heritage-inspired game board, encountering questions, challenges, and facts that blend cultural traditions with environmental and social values. The game encourages learning through play, promoting discussion about sustainability while celebrating Qatar’s identity.
Kenan, Karim, Essa, and Khalid, Members of the QAK Eco Club are transforming the open area between Building F clusters—where Grades 6 to 8 spend their breaks—into a vibrant, edible garden. The space will feature fast-growing herbs and edible plants cultivated for use by the school cafeteria, promoting a cycle of local production and responsible consumption. This initiative combines functionality, sustainability, and aesthetics while raising awareness of green practices within the school community.
