Creating My World

From: Lucius, Pri 6, Tao Nan School

If I were a Mapmaker, I would create things in my school to make it a gracious, inclusive, and eco-friendly environment.

Firstly, I would fill the school with little animals, which would be taken care of by students. By learning to take care of animals, students learn to be loving and kind to not only animals, but also humans. It also nurtures a sense of responsibility in them. Showing love, care, and kindness to one another is what makes a society gracious.

Secondly, I would install barrier-free facilities in my school. These include lifts, ramps, and wheelchair-friendly playground equipment. An inclusive society is achieved when no one feels left out.

Lastly, I would place more recycling bins in my school to encourage students to cultivate a habit of recycling. I would also install solar panels to convert sunlight into renewable energy. In addition, I would create a water catchment to collect rainwater for watering plants, including hydroponic plants. When everyone is environmentally conscious, the world will become a better place.
