My Project

Students drink water throughout the day at school. Providing students with a reusable water bottle helps them reduce plastic waste and also provides a healthy lifestyle.

Reusable water bottles not only help students learn about the environmental impact of plastic bottles but also provide hydration to active students.

In addition, drinking water improves memory and attention, helps students maintain a healthy weight. Students learn the importance of recycling. Students also have a better understanding of environmental issues and ways to protect our earth! Students can reduce their carbon footprint with simple steps.

Our school promotes sustainability on a daily basis. Students accept responsibility for the environment and can be seen throughout the school collecting recyclable materials.
