Our topic for this year’s Start Small Dream Big project is “Protecting Our Wildlife Animal Friends”.
The blazing Australian fire in 2019 had caused countless wildlife animals to be injured, lost of their homes and even their lives. Wildlife animals are also commonly preyed upon by hunters and predators. All these had made us realised the importance and necessity of protecting our wildlife friends. We want to learn more about our wildlife friends and what we can do together to protect them.
七月十七日，我们学校 Starlearners@Bukit Merah K1和K2的小朋友们进行了“Start Small Dream Big ”的启动仪式，我们的题目是：保护野生动物朋友们。 2019年九月开始熊熊燃烧的澳洲大火，让无数的野生动物们受了伤，失去了家园，丧失了生命，屡禁不止地猎杀野生动物也时有发生，这些种种，都让我们意识到保护野生动物朋友们的重要性和必要性，小小的我们，想要去更加深入的了解我们的野生动物朋友们，一起来为保护野生动物做点什么。
Before the launch party, we invited families of our children to join them in creating a craft of their favourite wildlife animal, as well as designing a costume together.
在启动仪式之前，我们也邀请了家长们一同参与到我们的活动中来。他们和孩子们一起决定在启动仪式当天，孩子所要扮演的野生动物，并一起在合理利用资源的前提下，制作出服饰，让孩子们在启动仪式这天穿来学校。同时，他们还一同在纸盘上制作出自己所扮演的野生动物。
On the day of our launch party, the children and teachers came dressed in the wildlife animal of their choices. Everyone took turns to share about their costumes and learned about wildlife animals through games and songs.
启动仪式当天，老师和孩子们都装扮成各种野生动物。我们先一起观看了今年SSDB的主题视频，接着我们通过一些小游戏来学习什么是野生动物，然后，我们还一一介绍了我们的服装造型，最后，我们将我们的动物纸盘贴在启动板上，深情演唱歌曲《它们在呼唤》，我们的活动就正式开启 !
梦想要大！我们从小事做起！
