๐ฅ2nd Place โ Best Eco-Friendly School (Elementary Category)
๐ Special Award โ Best Innovation in Single-Use Plastic Initiative
These honors recognize the success of our school's innovative environmental program:
**A.R.R.I.B.A. Routine**
โActing Responsibly & Reducing Impact in Breaktime Activitiesโ
To instill responsibility, hygiene, and environmental consciousness among learners through the use of reusable and washable plates and cups during recess, significantly reducing waste and minimizing our school's carbon footprint. What began as an initiative among Grade 5 learners has now become a practice embraced by the entire school community.
This achievement is more than an awardโit is proof that meaningful change happens when everyone moves together with a shared purpose. From our dedicated teachers who guided and inspired, to our hardworking utility personnel who helped sustain the program, to our supportive parents who reinforced these values at home, and most importantly, to our learners who embraced the responsibility of caring for the environmentโthis success belongs to all of you.
Just like the meaning behind A.R.R.I.B.A. we continue to move "upward and forward", rising together as one school community committed to responsible action and a greener future. Through teamwork, discipline, and shared commitment, we show that even small daily actions can create a lasting impact on our world.
Together, we rise. Together, we lead. Together, we make a difference.
