This year, they decided to focus their effort on making a difference in their daily routines, to uphold the virtues of safety and politeness. They carried out “Six Actions”, which were: no riding bicycles on campus, leaving campus hand in hand with parents, being polite and greeting one another, clearing plates, saving resources, and no arguing with other children. At Ivy MI Kindergarten Eco-city campus, the students decided to run in their effort to raise funds. Through their amazing effort, the students raised 12,915 RMB! With this generous donation, the campus is supporting several causes: they will support stray animals. provide some financial support for sanitation workers, help make the wishes of poor children come true, and will support the formation of a “parent school” to help parents learn new knowledge as well.
