Moving forward, we are preparing our children to use recycled materials to create toys for the underprivileged children. As the topic of Recycling arises, we have collaborated with NEA to equip our children with the knowledge and importance of Recycling.
On 11th May 2022, children had a Zoom Session cum Talk by NEA. NEA gave a talk about recycling and also showed the children some videos about recycling and what happens to the things that are thrown in the recycling bin. Children were encouraged to ask some questions to further enhance their knowledge on recycling.
The questions were as follows: -
-
Why can’t we throw food in the recycling bin?
-
Can we throw food wrappers in the recycling bin?
-
Why do we have to wash the bottles before throwing in the recycling bin?
-
Where does all the recycled things go?
-
What happens to the recycled materials if it is dirty?
Through the zoom session, the children gained more knowledge on recycling. NEA shared a lot of videos for children to be aware on what they can recycle or what they cannot recycle. They even shared resources on Clean & Green SG for the activities that we can carry out with the children.
