由二年级倡议举办的地球周活动,今年已经是第二届啦!活动让学生有机会了解全球环境问题。本届主题为“探讨如何解决和治理环境问题” – 这也契合地球日的主旨。不仅是二年级的学生,小学部的每一位都积极参与,共同探索如何通过减少垃圾生成率、废旧物品再利用和再循环,缓解当下的环境问题。为期一周的地球日活动,学校还举办了各色活动和主题课程。
This is the second year since Grade 2 introduced a school wide Earth Day Celebration event affording students an opportunity to inquire into global environment issues.

The inquiry went beyond Grade 2 classrooms into a school wide event. Throughout the week students engaged in activities that focused on each grade level's learning objectives related to conserving the environment.
