    Safe and Engaging Play Spaces: A new green space for children was constructed near the school to support both play and outdoor learning activities. The area was built on land donated by Ormat and a neighboring landowner, featuring grass and wooden play equipment. Children designed environmental-themed murals, with winning artworks brought to life on the walls by a local artist. The space now serves all community children, including 50 students, and has contributed to better learning conditions and increased school enrollment for 2025
