Description:
In the Environment Science Club, we aim to raise a generation of young people who display the passion to conserve the environment, aligned with the Singapore Green Plan 2030, and become eco-stewards of Singapore.
We also aim to empower our eco-stewards to be Environmental Ambassadors of Chongzheng Primary School, and encourage their peers to champion sound sustainability practices, such as reducing food waste, energy use and plastic waste, becoming confident people who are concerned about sustainability and want to create a positive impact to the environment.
Below are some activities we have done:
-
Visit to Sustainability@Tampines Park to learn more about reducing food waste by using black soldier fly larvae.
-
Visit to Carpark Rooftop Urban Farm in Tampines to learn about vertical and urban farming, and how we can achieve Singapore’s 30 by 30 initiative (achieve 30% of Singapore’s food production by 2030)
-
STEM activity – Students learn to use recycled materials to make a paddleboat from plastic bottles, satay sticks and rubber band.
-
Vermicomposting Workshop conducted by Werms Inc.
-
Growing vegetables, pack and distribute to the teachers in the school
-
Engaging in upcycling activities – Students explore how old materials can be transformed into something new and better than what they were before.
-
Advocating for the conservation of natural resources – Students engage the school community and organise fun and meaningful activities to foster a culture of sustainability.
