Cayman Prep’s Year 6 Primary Class won the 2011 Disney’s Planet Challenge

 Cayman Prep’s Year 6 Primary Class won the 2011 Disney’s Planet Challenge, a yearly program aimed at inspiring students to be good stewards of the environment and empowering them to make a difference. It is sponsored through a relationship with Disney Cruise Line and the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism, Department of Education and Department of the Environment. Disney noted that “The young environmental champions were honored aboard the Disney Magic cruise ship in Grand Cayman last week for their class project focused on protecting the threatened swallowtail butterfly, an endemic species found only in the Cayman Islands.” Click here for Disney’s statement and video of the children aboard the ship, where they were also lauded by Disney and the Government (and some cruise passengers).
