Recycle Your CDs

We love finding ways to reuse and recycle things especially in creating fun projects! It was such a wonderful way to recycle the unwanted CDs into beautiful crafts...

Going Green Fundraiser

Today was not a regular school day, but rather a green school day with the final event of The Green School Project was taking place. The garage and bake sale titled " Go Green Fundraiser" started at ten with a presentation about The Environmental Awareness Week activities and a short power point presentation summarizing all activities with pictures. We were very happy to see many guests sharing in our event. We had visitors from other Makassed schools like: Omar Bin Al Khattab, Ali Bin Abi Taleb, Abi Baker Al Sadeeq, Makassed College for Girls, and Khadija Al Kobra. Students enthusiastically rushed to have a look at the items being sold to choose from them and encircled the cotton candy and pop corn machines, while other waited for their turn to get a beautiful face painting.

KSPS students demonstrated very good communication skills as they were the ones responsible for selling items and food and collecting money. They also were present at the different bulletin boards on which most of the projects were displayed to explain to the visitors more about every project.

Because success is measured by the outcome, then we are elated to announce that the event was a most successful one. Our aim was achieved and it is not too late before you notice the direct change. The school will have a new look as the pots of flowers and plants will cover our window sills and turn our school to a true green school.

Special thanks go to the Makassed community for their sharing and contribution and continuous support and motivation. We would like to that all the schools that came and took part in our event. A sincere thank you to Bank Med is pioneer in adopting a project that encourages schools to take green steps.

We are grateful to each and every person belonging to KSPS family; to the parents' committee for being there and lending a big hand. Together we were and will always able to achieve success and always strive for excellence.

التّدوير

ضمن الّنشاطات الهادفة للمحافظة على البيئة، كانت لنا جلسة مع تلامذة الّصّف الثّاني الأساسي وذويهم. حيث قمنا بمشروع اعادة التّدوير لأشياء تمّ استخدامها سابقا كزجاجة الماء البلاستيكّية ،وأعواد المشاوي أو الماصّات بالاضافة الى أوراق ملوّنة.ومنها صنعنا زهريات حوت وردات تطاولات أعناقها وتفتحت عن بتلات ملوّنة بألوان الرّبيع . زيّن بها التّلاميذ شرفات المدرسة والصّفوف . آملين أن نكون قد زرعنا في نفوس أولادنا وذويهم محبّة البيئة واستغلال ما نستعمله مرّة لعدّة مرّات فأهلا بشباب ناشط داعم للبيئة بجميع مجالاته

Environmental Awareness Week

It was a successful 'Environmental Awareness Week'!

During this event, we've been doing our bit to go green at home and at school to help take care of our environment and to appreciate the beauty of our Earth. We took part in a range of activities and learned how to become more responsible in looking after our environment. These activities have really made us think about new ways to help save our Earth.
Let's take care of our Earth and go green!

Taking Small Steps; Making a Huge Difference

Most of us are not paying attention and growing habits that are affecting the environment in a negative ways. It is time to stop. We can't stand silent. We know that we should start somewhere and that we are part of the solution not the problem.
For that reason, change will start with the young. Do you think that children can’t make a difference? Not so. Children are aware of serious environmental problems around them. They decided to change these bad habits into more environment friendly ones. They promised to share it not only with friends at school, but also with their families and friends outside school.
There are dozens of small things you and your children can do every day to save energy and keep the world cleaner and greener. At school, students learned that they can do little things, like:
- Turning off the lights and switching off the fan before leaving the classroom so as not to waste energy
- Closing the water when brushing your teeth so as not to keep water running
- Throwing the trash in the wastebasket so as not to litter the ground
- Being aware of the importance of recycling and throwing objects that will be recycled in the waste basket or boxes that are particular for each item
Keep in mind that if your child develops good habits now, he/she will keep as he/she grows.
