On April 2022, the N2 children from PCF Sparkletots Preschool @ Yio Chu Kang Blk 611 has embarked on a project “Let’s Recycle Together” to let the children know the importance of 3R’s (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). To kick start this project, the teachers showed a video about the process of recycling in Singapore after the collection of recyclables in the recycling bin. Through this project, children have a better understanding of waste management and the importance of segregating their waste at home.
The children were exposed to practices on how they can help to keep the environment clean and pleasant for everyone, differentiating items that can be recycled such newspaper, plastic bottles, tin can and more through hands-on activities with our recycling bin in our classroom.
The children also had discussion about the importance of reducing the amount of plastic we use, and we even came out with ways to reduce plastic usage. One of the activities that we did was to recycle and decorate 1Litre water bottles into a beautiful flower pots.
