Earth Week
18 - 22 APRIL 2016
Green is the new black ! This phrase marked the start of Earth Week in SJI . Being green is cool , literally , especially with the recent spate of dry and very hot weather . SJI Green Club put up a myriad of activities around the school to mark Earth Week . It started with a display of books regarding the environment and some samples of upcycling items from teachers in the library .
It is heartening to see all , students and staff , NParks and WWF , coming together as a green community to love the only planet we live in .
There were fun activities such as a skit on the Conference of Parties ( COP ) 21 and a quiz on climate change .
We ended off the week with a prize presentation on Earth Day ( 22 April 2016 ) for an inter-class “ Design-A- Recycling Bin ” contest .
