After the virtual show, our Ranger Buddies were engaged in a discussion to share what we could do to raise awareness about conserving our wildlife. With guidance, they decided to create posters using cardboard to spread the importance and impact of caring for our wildlife.
Hence, for Earth Day, we focused on the theme āSaving Wildlife, One Animal at a Timeā!
āI draw Pedro and his friends at the ocean! I love all the animals!ā
To create the posters, our Ranger Buddies got their markers and started decorating the star cardboard cut-outs. They were seen drawing various animals (including Pedro the Sealion!) with messages like āSave our animals!ā and āWe love animals!ā.
We then recycled bottle caps that the children have collected and decorated the turtleās shell with it. Additionally, the children filled Pedroās cut-out with their thumb prints to mark the start of our āStart Small, Dream Bigā project, as well as our pledge to care for the wildlife together!
āWe pledge to protect and care for the animals! We need to throw our trash in the bin.ā
Our PG, PN and Nursery children also participated actively in the pledge making! They helped to spread awareness through various crafts such as a āWe Love Earthā necklace.
Overall, it was a meaningful Earth Day celebration! The children were elated to help raise awareness about conserving wildlife through various ways (e.g., recycling old items). They are excited to be part of the āAdopt-An-Animalā intiative organised by Mandai Wildlife Reserve to learn more about Pedro,Ā and how theyĀ could help out in other ways! šš¦
