  Daily Student Interaction As part of KGP, we have established a practice of meeting students after school hours to discuss and review their garden activities. During these interactions, team members provide feedback, guidance, and support based on the progress of each student’s garden. This interaction has now become a regular routine. Students who live far away return home after school, while those living nearby and in the surrounding areas attend the daily meetings. Each day, the team selects a specific gardening-related topic for discussion with the students. These regular interactions help students stay connected with KGP activities, share their experiences and challenges, and receive timely support to improve and maintain their gardens.
