Recycling Day

      "Girls, today is the Recycling day and also Earth day. As you may know, the ozone layer is thinning and the EI Nino and EINina wind currents have wreaked havoc in many part of the world.You may also have read about the heat wave in many countries. All these have come about because Man has been irresponsible. We teachers would like all classes grouped into four or five participate in what we called " Recycling Day Projects" where each group has to submit a proposal to do something.The group which has the most votes from the teachers will recieve an award." 

       
        This morning speech given to us was by our principal, Miss Christina Teo. I was very excited about this as I have a keen love for the enviroment, "Let's collect recycle materials that can be recycled like cans,Yakult bottles, plastic, newspaper, glass bottles. We are going to do a Swimming Complex.
         Our group readily agreed to the proposal and we set aside every Tuesday to to collect recycle materials from neighbours. In addition, our group churned out a leaflet using recycled paper which highlighted the importance of the enviroment.This was given away to every household.
         Putting aside our heavy homeworks workload was no mean feat. We found some that some residents were very happy to oblige,while others were very grouchy. We were happy that we had finish our recycling project.The following during assembly, the principle had this announcement to make," Class 4 Faith, group 3 wins the top award."Our group beamed with happiness as we went foward to recieve a $50 cheque from the principle.
