26th Sports Day
Event date: 17 April 2009
On the 17th of April, in conjunction with Sports Day, the team had a booth set up to exhibit articles on environmental saving and to promote awareness amongst parents, teachers and students. At 7 o' clock in the morning the team was ready with all the materials and decorations. All members of the team dressed up with recyclable items to attract attention to promote our awareness campaign. The parents that turned up at our booth were informed with environmental facts and collected donations to support our activities throughout the year. At 10.30 a.m., we cleared up the booth and kept all the laminated reading articles for further use.We then got ready to recite our green pledge during the prize giving ceremony. During the prize giving ceremony, the team led the "green pledge" in front of the students, teachers and parents. We hope that the community has received our message with open hearts and has started to go green. Reported by, Lim
'No Styrofoam' Campaign
On the 17th of April, in conjuntion with Sports Day,the librarians launched the 'no-styrofoam' campaign by selling drinks with paper cups instead of styrofoam cups. They did this so as to not use styrofoam which cannot be recycled whereas the paper cups could. They also prepared a bin for the cups to be thrown into as they could then collect it and send it for recycling.
