Mesage from The Newsletter Team

On Wednesday, September 25th, 2024, all the excited children from ISMILE, from Nursery 1 to Kindergarten 2, went on their first field trip of the school year! The destination? Tani Kota—a special place where kids can learn all about farming while having fun with nature

At Tani Kota, the goal was to help the children discover the wonders of the outdoors. They got to move around, explore, and ask lots of questions, all while learning about the world around them. With hands-on activities and exciting discoveries, the children not only saw new things but also learned how important it is to take care of nature.

Even though some of the younger kids were a bit nervous at first, everyone quickly got into the spirit of the adventure! After starting the day with a group prayer and some fun icebreaker games, we were ready to go. Our first big task? A 900-meter nature walk! The children spotted all kinds of plants and learned what made them special. We also took a calm stroll by the river, enjoying the peaceful sound of the flowing water

Nafas To Install Clean Air Zones in 7 iSmile Pre-School Campuses in Indonesia

As pollution in Jakarta and many other Indonesian cities continues to get worse, Nafas has been appointed as the air quality partner for iSmile Family of Schools in Indonesia and is tasked with bringing healthy air quality to 7 campuses in Permata Hijau, Menteng, Kelapa Gading, Pantai Indah Kapuk, P. Antasari (for Alam Atelier & BazGym) and Bandung. As part of the partnership, Nafas will be providing healthy air quality management, analytics & reporting as well as leading educational programs for parents across iSmile, iShine, Alam Atelier and BazGym  to continue to raise awareness about air pollution and public health.

Over 800 students attend iSmile Family of Schools, one of the top pre-schools in Jakarta, Bandung and Bali. The dedication of iSmile administration to providing the optimal learning environment for its students extends to ensuring that healthy indoor air quality levels are always maintained. 

For their schools that already have a Clean Air Zone, Nafas successfully reduced indoor air pollution by over 80% in classrooms at the Kelapa Gading campus in April 2024.  Unhealthy indoor air quality in schools provides a sub-optimal learning environment for children and long term exposure to PM2.5 reduces concentration, focus and can impair cognitive development. Nafas even published an article about this – The Smog Effect: How Air Quality Could Be Affecting Test Scores.

Clean Air Zones by Nafas are a subscription based B2B service which provides companies with air quality diagnostics, healthy air management, data analytics and real-time reporting of indoor pollution levels. The end to end service is the first of its kind in Indonesia, and already serves over 100 clients in offices, schools, small businesses and residential locations.
