2021 has yet been another challenging year for all of us. With the pandemic still around us, we should not forget about the resources that we get on this Earth. A simple example is our ‘Water’.
When children are educated to save and use water economically, they can help reduce water wastage now and in the future. They will be able to do more number of daily activities with less amount of water and these good habits will become a way of life for them.
This year the SSDB Project is led by our Senior Teacher - Wong Sin Yee. She started the project on 3rd June 2021. All the teachers created their own lesson plans and conducted various age-appropriate activities in their classrooms.
Here are some ways that our children from Toddler to K2 showed theur understanding of water conservation.
