By Agape Little Uni. News October 5, 2022

This year at the 12th Singapore Chinese Culture & Calligraphy Art Exhibition (SCCCE), our children participated in the art competition over a zoom call of 1.5 hours. They unleashed their boundless creativity and imagination for the theme, “Sustainability – Preserving our Natural Environment (返朴归真)” and achieved the Gold, Silver and Bronze awards!

Let’s take a look at their beautiful works and the meaning behind their creations. We are so proud of each and every Agape child who have participated in the art competition!

A brand new day begins – time to sow a seed! Apple cores, fish bones, food scraps – I bury them in the ground, alongside my seed. The happy little birds sing sweetly, anticipating a beautiful tree to grow and thrive, with all the nutrients it needs! My New Garden will sustain life as long as I care for the living things around me each day.

Rafeal Lau Xun Han, Agape Little Uni. @ Compassvale

我们需要让地球保持健康和快乐，这样天空才会出现美丽的彩虹，小鸟儿才可以在天空自由的飞翔，我们才可以到游乐场尽情的玩耍。我会保护地球，不让地球恶化。

As part of Agape Little Uni’s commitment to Social Responsibility, Sustainability is one of the key topics we have included in our programme. We believe in the importance of cultivating eco-friendly values in the early age to maintain a greener future for the next generation. From “Bring Your Own Lunchbox” initiative to “Share-A-Bag” initiative, we have introduced various go green efforts to educate our children and incorporate this practice into their curriculum.

Here’s a video on our children’s learning journey on the topic of Sustainability!
